Oh fuck off. There were over 5 million people protesting yesterday.

Cats are invasive predators and are causing birds to go extinct. They kill 4 billion birds in the lower 48 every year.

Where would a cat get food outside? They rarely eat animals they catch.

Cat obesity isn't actually funny in real life, it's animal abuse.

Fair enough. I didn't mean to imply that we're as good as the French at protesting. I don't think anyone is. They are the world champion protestors. I wonder what platform they use to organize.

Yes, I covered that in my comment.

Are you saying that if the people organizing the event aren't members of Congress, that they will be targeted and vanish? That's a scary thought. Perhaps the leaders should be kept anonymous.

I would argue that we are. 21,000 in Paris is very similar to 34,000 in Denver. The thing us Americans need to get better at is organizing ourselves. We shouldn't require leaders like Bernie Sanders and AOC to get us to show up. The regular people of France are amazing at protesting on their own, and we desperately need that kind of energy.
