Support NeoGAF

[hodgy100]

Apparently America does protests bigger and better than every other country too.

after the low turnout of the inauguration. and the incredible turnout of these protests. It's given me a bit more faith in people.

Keep it up guys

This isn't that kind of movement, unfortunately. These people are united by anger, not a consensus on political action.

And what's wrong with that? Anger is often the fuel for change, history says as much.

Would it be weird if I (male) go to a local march by myself? My fiance is at work.

No, it won't be. Go and show your support. This is suppose to be an inclusive event.

BREAKING: AP sources say crowd packs entire route of Women's March, preventing organizers from leading formal march toward White House

...there's too many people for the march to actually, well, march?

 

[NetMapel]

Hahaha

 

[Ferr986]

This is so good to see. Best of wishes to everyone there.

 

[everyday math]

The DC march is canceled, cause they can't march to many people.

Well yes, but I think the DNC can use this as a starting point of turning this into action. The rallies after the march I think start some of the political side of this movement.

i don't think it would be

 

[fantomena]

The DC march is canceled, cause they literally can't march. To many people.

Luxury problem.

MC Lyte!

Also sounds like the organized march may not work but people are already marching on their own.

There's nothing wrong with that, it's great.

I hope so too.

 

[Lan Dong Mik]

Me and my fam represented in Denver today. Fucking huuuge turnout. Feels good to protest for the ladies and all of the other bullshit. Lots of great signs too. I'll post some pics in a bit

 

[hiphoptherobot]

Would it be weird if I (male) go to a local march by myself? My fiance is at work.

Not at all. Plenty of men at the march I was at.

 

[SilentRob]

Holy shit these mothers of children killed because of police brutality standing and protesting there together is gut-wrenching.

Yeah apparently people started before the official one so whatever lol! ✊️

 

[smokeymicpot]

They are still gonna march. It sounds like.

 

[Joel Was Right]

This isn't that kind of movement, unfortunately. These people are united by anger, not a consensus on political action.

Sadly I'm inclined to agree. But we shall see. The Republicans tormented the Tea Party out of the 2008 defeat. Hopefully the DNC can pull together and create a similar impact.

 

[Saucycarpdog]

And what's wrong with that? Anger is often the fuel for change, history says as much.

But the DNC does need to direct this anger and not have it be directionless like Occupy Wall Street.

 

[SchrodingerC]

Seeing so many women marching today makes me proud of my gender, and a little teary eyed haha. I wish I march with them today, but unfortunately college projects come first.
At least I have a few friends out there today, so I'm there in spirit.

Yep, looks like they are going to do it.

 

[Slayven]

Get'em

 

[somecrazymember]

Sorry i dont understand this one. Can someone explain? (I'm not amercian)

 

[Killa Sasa]

Fantastic to see.

Hope they continue to focus the energy/anger in the right directions, and don't let the flames die down because there isn't a movement or march or date around it. Have to remember to continue fighting for your rights, day in and day out.

And of course, there's a personal aspect at play here, including myself. Everyone needs to do their part.

That's a uterus and she's saying leave my eggs alone

It's based off of a waffle brand slogan.

Eggs? As in a Women's uterus?

 

[LiK]

Alicia Keys dropping by

Eggos are a waffle. It's a catchphrase.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

Eggos are a brand of frozen waffle with the slogan "leggo my eggos." Essentially, don't touch my waffles or in this case, her reproductive system.

 

[Heroman]

ATL is pack with people

 

[fantomena]

This one is awesome.

Jake Gyllenhaal is there.

 

[rjinaz]

There's nothing wrong with that, it's great.



I hope so too.

Ahh ok. I hope people become empowered from the protests to become more political.

That's hilarious. I love it

Fiance and I are heading out to the SF march later today.

I have half a mind to make a sign saying "And I have a Job"

Eggos are a North American brand of frozen waffles. They've often used the slogan 'Leggo my Eggos' (as in let go of my Eggos). 'Eggos' are being used as word play for being similar to the word 'eggs', in reference to women's health and reproductive issues, specifically abortion.

Only our South Entrance is open. We're working on access for people in need of rest, water, but see photo: Yikes! #WomensMarchOnWashington

Wow. Smithsonian you're cool in my books

 

[MrMephistoX]

I love Melissa

Great stuff she's a treasure.

 

[smokeymicpot]

Yep, looks like they are going to do it.

No way they will stop this crowd. They gonna shut DC down.

NYT says potentially half a million people are in washington alone.

 

[rjinaz]

Watching the Phoenix march. I'm proud of Arizona for a change. What a turnout.

Ehhh...I would say don't do that. It could be spun in a tacky petty way. There's so much other gold to choose from.
