No Zach, the thousands of people that went to the women's march and didn't destroy anything. They just want the president to defend their rights. Protesting is the most american, most democratic thing you can do. Just cause it's not reich doesn't make it wrong.
Also, anyone who uses the term Fake News, really needs to stop.
Why ?
Trump made his entire campaign by pointing out how many times leftist democrat media such as CNN, MSNBC, Washington post, Huffington post and new york times were misrepresenting stuff all the time
There isnt a single mainstream american media, that doesnt lie or mispresents facts.
Most in that list do it by pulling stuff out of context. And then there is CNN which literally lies, or worse
- They consistantly lied about the number of people at trumps rally's. Only once a camera zoomed out to see the huge crowd. That guy was fired later.
- They published news that was not veryfied, and didnt bother doing so.
- At Trumps inauguration, they made a story about Nancy Sinatra not wanting Trump to use "my way". She personally responded to CNN asking why they where lying as she never said that.
- They ran a big story in great detail about if Trump and Pence got killed, how it would allow the Obama administration to pick a democratic successor.
36% of Americans trust mainstream media (which aside from Fox is all democratic, breitbart is alternative media). It just 26% of people under 49.

I agree but at the same time we have Breitbart, Fox, Daily Mail, Russia Today which are nothing more than propaganda machines.
Fox does nothing that MSNBC or others arent reporting, and isnt as bad as CNN
Breitbart is a mix of opinions and actual facts
Nobody cares about a tabloid
RT, as Quetzalcoatl said, is actually fantastic. I read it exactly for what he says, reporting all the stuff that CNN and BBC arent reporting. Sure, they glorify the russian warmachine and like to ridicule Obama, but they dont make shit up.
American Media have found a great 'modern propaganta', by en masse not reporting certain things, and putting great attention on contrasting stuff.
RT is the nice news outlet that will have picked up those stories from alternative american media, and then report it.
This is why Obama specifically hated RT. All the stuff they didnt want to see or didnt like to be blown up about Clinton ? Yup, RT did exactly that.

Yeah man. They were marching to preserve their rights. There is a great chance that Roe v Wade will get overturned with this administration and they want to protect that.
If you wait to protest until your rights have been taken away, then you're probably already in a concentration camp.

So what. Now politicians can decree any report, no matter how factual, to be Fake News. Very dangerous precedent being set by the Trump administration.
I have no problem with their march. It was peacefull, and they send a voice. And they should do it now, its nice.
Especially Since Trump works from day 1 to re-election so he'll take that in account
