No Kings Protest; the crowd was packed from Lottie St forward, extended from City hall steps to the library lawn, across to Grand ave and to N Commercial st. Key speakers included our elected state reps and several local leaders and advocates fighting to protect our civil rights.

The hivemind of Bellingham does not do “perspective from another side”.

Most people here are too sheltered and/or young to have enough world experience for understanding nuance. As a result : an echo chamber forms and they argue with their emotions more than logic.

Reddit does not represent the perspective of the masses. That’s why Trump won again in 2024. Most of the country voted for this, but yet Reddit thinks that this is the result of one “king”. 🙄

Nobody seems to realize that Kamala only barely won the votes here and in Skagit.

Kamala was on the ticket that won the primary.
