The US Just Took A Huge Leap Towards Revolution

The 'No Kings' protests drew a line in the sand.

Last weekend was a litmus test for the US. Were they going to fall in line and yield to the Tangerine Palpatine, the Cheeto Bonito, the Mango Mussolini, the Fondling Father and his sycophantic, egotistical parade? Or would they chuck his grotesque tea into the Boston River? This truly is a crossroads, as history has proven countless times. Once a nation bends the knee to authoritarianism, there is no going back. The tyrants never return the power to the people — it’s either oppression or ruination. With Trump’s ridiculous display of inadequacy becoming a humiliating blunder and the ‘No Kings’ protests being some of the largest in US history, the result is now painfully obvious. However, by comparing the two, we are missing the main story here.

But first, let’s take a moment to point and laugh at Trumpoleon’s failure.

Trump claims more than 250,000 people attended his military parade on June 14th, but either he has been enjoying the remainder of Elon’s ketamine, or he is lying. In reality, the crowd was significantly below the projected 200,000. The photos of the event look bleak, with empty seats, bare fields and desolate attractions.

But hold on, it gets worse. Reporters on the ground found that many attendees despised Trump and had only attended out of loyalty to the military. There was also a Craigslist ad that popped up a few days before the event seeking “seat-fillers” for “space maximisation and attendance perception” for an event in “Washington DC on June 14th” in exchange for $1,000 in cryptocurrency. Sadly, it seems this advert was a prank, but it was a pretty bloody good one. Either way, a sizeable portion of that tiny crowd hated the man the event was being held for.

It seems even those within the parade may have hated him. Spectators have ridiculed the parade, noting that no one marched in step, as is commonly seen with these dictator-pleasing marches, making the military look amateurish. However, many veterans have publicly stated that everyone is taught how to march in step in basic training and have therefore theorised that this was the military’s way of protesting Trump — which is an intriguing theory that I am ill-equipped to verify.

So, egg is most definitely on the Orange Führer’s face.

But what about the ‘No Kings’ protests?
