@dtm@mastodon.cc 3.5 is just a rule-of thumb number. 3.5% of the population committed enough to march, over a period (not just once) is an /indicator/ that there are enough people driving a change. The actual change happens through the gestapo losing steam, (the right) people engaging in running for office, voting, campaigning, creating policies that can gain support and actually work. So, is the actual change-making/marchers stronger or weaker in current US society than global average ? @blogdiva@mastodon.social
