The peacefulness is the major headline, and as a citizen body, it is something to be proud of. The question now is: should we have more such massive demonstrations that remain peaceful even with more than 8 million participating? Or should there be a unified "ask" of our government to which they must respond? We need to inject these demonstrations with more pointed goals to which it is clear the government must react.
Peaceful protest are cool. Are they enough? Think back to the 60s- an unwanted war called Vietnam, people of color treated like dirt- think now… same deal, same political party in charge. Back then we made some noise and things changed!! We can do it again and get the grifters out of government!!
Possibly there is so little violence in these protests because blue voters are far less prone to violence. Compare this to the Jan 6 "protest" where a couple hundred red voters turned it into a riot where they beat police with flagpoles, destroyed and looted the building, and erected a gallows to hang the VP. 8 million mostly blue voters managed to protest without getting even close to the Jan 6 maga level of violence. No matter how much the magas try to convince themselves we're the ones prone to violence, history shows another story.
The crowds were estimated to be over 8 MILLION. They are growing bigger with every event that takes place. The November Blue Wave will lead to the January impeachments that will bring our country back to sanity.
“ The peaceful majority was not background noise. It was the headline, and it deserves to be remembered that way.” 👍

Yeah and now the Jan 6 rioters are suing the capitol police for damages. You can bet piggy Trump will give them money, the money stolen from us!!

Yes that will be our chance to start to right the wrongs done by the uber wealthy to our country.
