Fascism is not looming.
It’s already here.

November 5, 2025.

Join us in Washington DC. In the millions.

In the name of humanity, we refuse to accept a fascist America.

I’ll be in NJ! So thankful for #NoKings. This movement has changed us. It is a movement of SOLIDARITY & opposition. The organizers are BRILLIANT. I will fight this fascist regime to the DEATH. I’m so grateful to be in SOLIDARITY with THE MAJORITY. Hope to see you Saturday.

No Kings

As the president escalates his authoritarian power grab, the NO KINGS non-violent movement continues to rise stronger. We are united once again to remind the world: America has No Kings and the power ...

Where is Congress?
Where are the Courts?
Where are the former presidents?
Where are the journalists?
Where are the clergy?
Where are the retired military officers?

Where is the OUTRAGE?

The silence is DEAFENING.

50501: The People’s Movement ❌👑 @50501movement.bsky.social · 23h

The secret power of a people’s movement is that it’s random.

It’s neighbors protecting immigrants from ICE. It’s millions canceling Disney+. It’s a man throwing a sandwich. It’s inflatable frogs dancing.

Dictators struggle to fight a movement, because they can’t do what they want most—control us.

They do.
Every. Single. Day.

John Locke of Boston 🇺🇸🇨🇦🇺🇦 @johnlockeboston.bsky.social · 8h

Shocking. Who would have ever suspected … ? 🙄🙄🙄

No one is paying anyone to show up.
But even if someone were funding it, so what?
Citizens United: spending money is a form of free speech.

This is moral courage.
We need more of this.
A lot more.

Not reposting the nonsense from the right about how Saturday's march is ANTI-AMERICAN! SOROS-FUNDED!

What they're saying is so nonsensical that it reeks of desperation.

They're scared of a simple display of mass opposition.

Bring your American flags, folks.
It's a pro-America, pro-democracy march

I wish people didn’t bleep out the slurs with hyphens. I realize the slurs are offensive, but it would be so much more powerful to show what these MFers actually wrote, unedited and unsanitized. Show us who they really are.

If and when this nightmare ever ends, we are going to have to totally de-MAGA-fy our entire society much as the Allies de-Nazi-fied Germany after World War 2.

They know the history.
They’re lying.

They know they’re lying.
We know they’re lying.
And they know that we know that they’re lying.

It’s propaganda. Pure and simple.
And it’s dangerous.

How do these fucking people sleep at night? How do they look their children in the eye when pretending to be role models? How do they avoid slipping into a deep depression? How do they live with the and what they have become?
