leaders with the most prominent Trump-resistance group organizing “No Kings” answered that complaint Saturday when Indivisible’s Ezra Levin took to the stage in Minneapolis and announced that a nationwide general strike is planned for May 1, modeled after a successful local action that shut down much of that region in January


That 3.5% is the approximate percentage of the population that it takes to POTENTIALLY reach a Tipping Point, and kick off a trend that takes hold and increases. It’s not guaranteed, but it becomes very possible at that point.
So they are trying to hit the 3.5% with protesters alone. That will scare the shit out of MAGA (it already is), because they know that those protesters are only a small percentage of the actual numbers. If all the voters were No Kings protesters, MAGA would win elections with 96.5% of the vote. Obviously there is a LOT of non-demonstrating resistance at home, watching in support. Many people simply can’t go to a physical protest for many reasons.
