More than just Europe actually, but you really stopped being able to tell just how many were in the US if I zoomed out further

Mexico, Costa Rica, Colombia, Malawi, Australia, also all have at least one No Kings protests planned too

EDIT: and Canada

Malawi is surprising to me, what's the context for one happening there of all places?

Also the ones in Australia/Canada/UK are kinda funny to me, seeing as they literally do have a king.

Don't know the organizers or anything, but I'd imagine the heavy foreign aid gutting is probably part of it

I like how they've tactfully called the ones in the UK "No Tyrants"

Ah oops, yes there is one in Vancouver didn't catch that

The other ones you probably noticed were not that and were part of Alaska, just with some really big bubbles that make it look further inland

I was mostly joking because Canada has a king.

So does the UK, and yet...

Ol' Chuck be like "what'd I do?!"

As a British citizen I feel as though the marches here are unrelated and we're just fed up of ol' sausage fingers and the rest of the peado brigade at Buckingham.

Have y’all stop putting the Queen of Canada on your currency?

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 months ago

The coins now have King Charles. And she'll be off the $20 bill at some point.
