Did you know the world was protesting against Trump on inauguration day? Or was this news hidden from you?
(www.theguardian.com)
It wasn’t covered at all in my area.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- 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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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!

I'm starting to think is community is actually a bunch of refugees from Twitter.
They literally think the world is 4 countries
This was not hidden here in the pnw. There was a protest that walked by my house. Joined in for a bit

Sent this to my mother, who probably thinks I’m full of hyperbole when I talk about how we’re seen around the world.

I've not seen much about it in American "liberal media", but, to be fair, I've not consumed a lot of media in the past month or so.

I knew it was happening but not a word about it beyond that reached my ears (blue state, USA). Was straight up bullshit
Did not know. Good to hear. This nitwit is bound to fail or find enough support to take the USA as a dictator.
An interesting unrelated note is that the average lifespan for a US male was about 77 years in 2022. Also good to hear.

The BBC mentioned it on inauguration day (UK) showed the protestors burning a flag and did a small interview with someone.
I heard NPR gloss over it, just mentioning that the number a protesters seem to have been less than the last time.
It didn't really give any estimate as to the number of people where they were at what their issues were. They didn't interview any of them, they gave it like maybe 5 to 10 seconds.
lol, as though I’ve been watching or reading the news for the last three weeks
Fair enough lol.
