      Couple of posts:

      • “We’re honored to report that over 11 million showed up for today’s No Kings protest”
      • “A lot of people have questioned our No Kings crowd estimates…”
      • 3.5% rule

      The 3.5% rule is more of an observation than a rule. It’s hopeful, but little more than that.

      I couldn’t quickly find a citation for 13 million, but the first post does indicate counts are still coming in.

          I don’t know who might have credible numbers. Obviously not the government. Altnps has a narrative and I expect they want everyone who came out to feel validated. That doesn’t mean they are lying, but they would have motive and no transparency.

          At the end of the day, it was a lot of people and one can simply visually compare the turnout in a single large city to Trump’s parade and see which way the wind is blowing.

        Alt National Park Service is not credible, they are basically a left-targeting qanon. The organizers of the protest say they had 5 million people in attendance.

          No argument. I can’t speak to the veracity of the account. I was answering where the big numbers came from.

          I’m not sure the tally is knowable. The pictures from NYC and Chicago were very impressive, but I wouldn’t know 1 million people from 100,000 just by looking to be honest.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That’s all the rules!
