This is honestly the first time I’ve seen pretty much anything about it.
I’ve been through enough elections to know that they do this for every president. So it’s not really news.
Really? You remember all those international anti-Obama and anti-Clinton protests on their respective Inaugural Day?
Yes. That’s what I said. Obama was very unpopular innhis second term and many Europeans hated Clinton’s free trade agreements.
Cool! Do you have any links to those protests?
This is starting to become scary
Starting?!
It wasn’t covered at all in my area.
Where, specifically?
Southern Central Valley of California about a 2 hour drive from LA.
The only thing I saw was a youtube video with Triumph the Insult Comic Dog from The Daily Show at an anti-Trump rally on the 20th.

Florida man reporting… I heard nothing of this from my usual news outlets, apnews, CNN, NPR…zero
First time I’m seeing this and I only browse Lemmy
So, which news sites should I be following?
Bruh
The Great Firewall of America is beginning
Buy more Hard Drives, we’re gonna need a lot more of those.
(I’m not a datahoarder myself, I only got like 2 1TB external SSDs and so far have like the wikipedia downloaded, idk what to download, honestly just too tired…)
how about the arch wiki?
Wikipedia’s a good one. They might start fucking with that. I’d learn to use Tor as well if you’re not familiar with it, just in case it’s needed.
Any good guides?
Grab stuff from the internet archive, copies of shows, movies, and music. Anytime you catch yourself streaming something, download it instead.
Like something? Save it. You can always delete it later to free up space but there’s no guarantee you’ll get the chance to download it again.

You underestimate my laziness. I’ll just rsync to a bigger and bigger drive each time.
For example, my phone’s SD card currently stores some 12,754 files totalling 244.5GB. I really want a 1TB card. Storage is magic. The files always adjust to the media size.
I just always rsync everything over to a new card. And also copy the partition UUID because I don’t remember which apps use it, plus I likely have a bunch of symlinks in Termux that would break. Oh, yes, Termux I copy over in the same manner of course.
I mean, I probably pointed them to ~/storage/card symlink, but I am not sure.I did have to delete a bunch of stuff already though, DVD ISO files and baseband satellite signal recordings to replace them with Wikipedia and other zim files.
Preferably, I’d have all files on every device. That’s the dream.We’re emulating that with a home server and a VPN to reach it when we’re out of the house. Though, thanks to the magic of storage, it’s been at 90% for a while…
Because protests accomplish absolutely nothing in America without violence. The billionaires are nice and comfy in their ivory towers, they have no concern for the peasants on the streets. If they are comfortable then nothing changes.
And if the prospective protestors are comfortable, they’ll stop short of their goals. Perhaps very short, if they start at all.
The violent protests didn’t do shit either, they just pissed off the rest of the citizenship. When protests turn to violence, all too often it’s against the businesses that the peasants frequent.
Also true, those are the wrong targets. There’s a much more pragmatic approach.
Did not know. Good to hear. This nitwit is bound to fail or find enough support to take the USA as a dictator.
An interesting unrelated note is that the average lifespan for a US male was about 77 years in 2022. Also good to hear.
The average american doesn’t have a personal team of doctors
How did you not see this?
Yeah, I participated in the one that was a few days before the inauguration. Heard about it from the front page of the New York Times. I’m pretty sure I heard about the other 700 marches planned for inauguration day here on Lemmy since this is the only social media site I use.
Panama, Mexico, London and Belgium are hardly “THE WORLD 🌎 ™️”
I’m in Argentina and no one here was protesting about or against Trump.
Nothing in Venezuela either
Weird not to see Canada jumping on that action
Your president is a Trump ally. I mean duh.
Why would Venezuelans protest the interim president of the United States, Juan Guaidó?

Just wait for the German Fasching (Carnival) parades, we will bring back the floats depicting Don taking it up the ass from Vlad.
LOLOLO! That was one of the floats! Danke!
They’ve got their work cut out for them this year! Now that the US government has gone full fucking Nazi I’m expecting some well-deserved brutally scathing criticism.
Wow, thanks for the support everyone. We’ll try to hold out for the next four years
Four? Haven’t you been reading the news?
