All things being equal Hopefully he will also march in a men's rights equivalent if he really supports equality of both genders.

That's great! These marches are very cool, wasn't there way more people involved in these than at Trump's actual inauguration? Trump said he wants to sue everyone who criticizes him, so the more people involved in protesting the more clear it is that intimidation isn't going to work and people won't just passively lie down and accept everything this celeb president will throw at them.

I don't even know what this YouTube channel is, but I'm just referring to the first 40 seconds. Is it fake if it's straight from the horse's mouth? It's Trump speaking. How can what he says be falsified when it's a video recording of him, we see him, we hear him? He says he wants to sue people who write "purposefully negative things [about him]". How do you interpret that if not as a limitation to freedom of speech? I don't know how it works in the US, but at least here in Finland politicians - especially the high-ranking ones, the president certainly qualifies - are less protected by libel laws than regular people, since the right to criticize politics and as such politicians is a very important aspect of freedom of speech and press, and of citizen participation. (As is the right to assemble and protest.)

It's tribalism, the effect of the echo-chamber, and similar ideas, where only your perspective on the truth is allowed to live.
And yes, Trump is a self-serving idiot.
These marches are very cool, wasn't there way more people involved in these than at Trump's actual inauguration?
No silly, that's an alternative fact.
Let's roll some tits up the flagpole and see if anyone gets wood.
What's an "alternative fact?"
It's to do with the Trump administration in the USA.
The administration and the media are at odds over certain issues.
An administration spokesperson declared that they had "alternative facts" to what the media had on a certain issue.
The journalist involved responded that alternative facts were not facts but falsehoods.
Or something along those lines...

Well, 'facts' just became a buzzword.
Based on the video, they seem to refer to "alternative narrative," but that just sounds bad.
"Based on the video, they seem to refer to "alternative narrative," but that just sounds bad."
I find it impressive how many alternative words and phrases that some people can dream up to describe lying.
ant-mac
It's not always meant to describe lying, but a way to tell the story you want, rather than deal with the facts.
Let's do something weird and talk about the show, for a change. Fact: Chibnall proposed change to the show defacto standard of writing, by implementing a similar concept to the American writing room.
One interpretation of this might be "Chibnall exhibit contempt for the show history and success by forcing British television to comply with American standards, that suggest an effort of taking the show's British roots and making it 'Americanized.'"
Another interpretation might be "In an attempt to make the show fresh again and focus on a more inclusive production, Chibnall suggested a change to the way the show writing is structured, reducing the stress from the writing team and allowing a more inclusive and a focused final product."
Both are based on facts. Each of those stories relies on a certain perspective and tend to paint a picture, rather than deal with the actual facts of the situation. The biggest problem we usually see with the interpretation of facts is the assumption of malice and the way the narrative of the story being told about the facts fall under a personal belief system.
...wasn't there way more people involved in these than at Trump's actual inauguration?

shareWhy do women in western society even need these marches?
What rights do they lack that men have?
Feminist Misandry Infests Doctor Who https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3dU2RmLX6c
On paper women have equal rigths, but statictics show that a lot of times our rights are compromised in practice.
For example for the same amount and quality of work, women usually get less salary than men.
Or a woman doesn't even get the job, because she has/might have children who may get the flu or something and she'll stay at home with them for a few days.
As a woman I'm a chemical engineer, and I had older teachers who said that a woman should not be any kind of engineer.
When I applied for jobs after finishing the university, I often had to declare that I won't have children at least for five years. Of course it is illegal to ask these question, but you won't find them in the documentation...
We also have politicians and celebrities who say that women belong to the kitchen, and their main job is to have children.
Until these kinds of people exist, these marches are needed unfortunately.
Until these kinds of people exist, these marches are needed unfortunately.
And the point of these marches, if I understand anything, isn't equality now - it's equality in the future under the rule of Trump. The US now has a president who supports severely limiting the freedom of speech, calls women names and brags about sexual assault, wants to deport millions of people who he has branded as "bad hombres and rapists", appointed a bigoted alt-right spokesperson as chief of strategy, and has a vice-president who supports conversion therapy for gay people all the while demanding safe spaces for people like himself. What does it matter how equal the US is on this date, if it'll all go to hell in the next 4 years whilst "Making America Great Again"? That is the point of protesting now.
I am not fan of Trump, but between him and Hilary he was obviously the better option.
Well it was more a thing of his win was the best out of the two options we had. If it hadn't been him then it would have been her.
Also I was arguing that Trumps win was good because.
1/ There will be no war with Russia now. Obama was leading us down that path, and Hillary would have caused some kind of conflict between the USA and Russia. I never said it was WW3, but it would have been a major conflict and at the very least more wars in the middle east.
Trump was the anti war candidate. I fail to see how that's not a good thing.
2/ Trump did not boast about sexual assault. His comments were disgusting but he said "THEY LET ME DO IT!"
3/ He is not racist. The fact that the KKK supported him does NOT mean he is a racist. Like I said socialists John Pilger and George Galloway also said they wanted him to win. Does that mean Trump is a socialist?
Trump only plans to deport ILLEGAL immigrants, and as I pointed out Obama is actually the great deporter.
Also Trumps Muslim ban though awful has not only been rescinded, but also was not racist. Islam is not a race, he was banning people for following an ideology, an ideology which to be fair is a twisted, brutal, and sexist ideology (even if all of its followers are not).
If Trump had said that all scientologists were to be banned or all communists were to be banned would that be racist? It would be bad as it would restricting our freedom of speech, but its not got anything to do with race, its against ideas.
Still his current policy about more controlled immigration is a good one, and its good that he is calling itIslamic terrorism as that's what it is! The left's cowardice in calling a spade a spade RE Islam is ridiculous and I for one am glad that we have a leader who is calling it what it is at least.
4/ Trumps win has shaken up the bastards at the top. George Soros, the superdelegates, the corrupt and biased mainstream media ALL of whom wanted Hillary to win have been given a bloody nose. The democrats will have to pick a better candidate than Hillary in years to avoid another humiliation on that par.
Thus we have a president now who wll fix the mess that is the relationship between Russia and America and combat Islamic extremism, and in 4 years will have a higher chance of a genuinely left wing president.
First of all, I didn't say Trump is racist. I listed factually what he has and hasn't done, and noted that some of his cabinet have shown racist/homophobic tendencies and Trump himself has insinuated he will want to limit freedom of speech when it comes to criticism against himself and his crew. Trump is responsible for his own cabinet, and who he picks, reflects on him.
As to Hillary, all Trump supporters keep harping on about her, did every Obama supporter try to deflect all criticism of Obama to "but but but...McCain/Romney"? No, and that's a pointless and desperate argument. So what if Hillary hadn't been good, it doesn't make Trump good. They were not the only candidates, there were primaries before the final elections, where different choices could have been made. I was for Bernie but let's be real, he would never have won the election either since some Americans think social democracy is a gateway to full-blown communism.
Obama was leading us down that path

He acts like a 5 year old on twitter.
He's contradicted himself on twitter.
He took down the LGBT and some other page down on the white house website.
He repealed a law so that middle class people don't get a tax break when buying a house (I'm unclear if that's completely right but that's the basic gist).
He's appointing people to his cabinet that have no experience and/or are against the position they've been appointed to.
He's called women accusing him of groping them too ugly to be groped.
He and his people lie (about stupid stuff that can be proven false!).
Melania read a plagarized speech and he plagarized Obama's inauguration cake, for god's sakes!
And that's not even all of it.
But, no, he's done nothing. *eyeroll*
I've never been a political person but this guy as president scares me sh!tless.
What do we want?
Time travel!
When do we want it?
It's irrelevant!
He repealed a law so that middle class people don't get a tax break when buying a house (I'm unclear if that's completely right but that's the basic gist).
but from the way Trump's foot is constantly in his mouth I deduce that he is at a much higher risk of aggravating Russia than Obama/Clinton ever were.
Hillary was also the one who had a policy that would have led into a direct conflict with Russia, via her no fly zone policy. She also said that she wanted to attack Russia over suspected email hacks, and if we are talking about having your foot in your mouth she also called Putin Hitler and said he had no soul!
Islamic bottom boy Obama.
Holy *beep* you're actually a trump supporter.

Women's March: The ugly face of hate
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DRwaCJGLuI&spfreload=10
Watched that. I would like to know if this woman is herself doing anything for the women in Riyadh or Tehran or...? Palestinians apparently deserve no help although they don't have freedom of movement due to their a) religion, b) ethnicity, c) gender and/or d) nationality. She uses a condescending tone (reminds me of the "really?!" segment of SNL with Amy Poehler and Seth Meyers) and "they were vulgar and used bad words?" So what. It's not like Trump himself isn't vulgar ("crab them by the pussy".) Did they say they wanted to grope Trump and his cabinet's penises or something?
She also says that these women are living in a democracy where it's their legal right to protest, and says they shouldn't protest? Many protests are just to show discontent, it's their point, we have tons even here in Finland every year. Even the far-right is entitled, I remember at least two anti-immigration protests from the past year. The other ended violently when an (ethnically Finnish) neo-nazi killed an (ethnically Finnish) man for being a "cuck" or whatever (protesting against the protest), go figure. No joke. http://www.reuters.com/article/us-finland-farright-crime-idUSKCN11O0SI
Madonna was totally out of line, you can't just threaten to blow up a building, let alone White House. I don't know about Ashley Judd, she was too incoherent for me to get the gist of what she was trying to say.
Speaking of blowing up buildings...
http://www.rawstory.com/2017/01/texas-mosque-goes-up-in-flames-hours-after-white-house-announces-muslim-ban/
I guess this is the "rational" approach.
And lol at the Muslim ban. Who's surprised Saudis aren't on the list? "Let's take World Trade Center as an example"? Yes, and then ban people from the countries that are adjacent to those who actually were behind 9/11. Makes all the sense in the world. I hope the US and Russia keep their love affair going on, since I'm in a neighboring country to Russia.

Next stop - abortion ban? It certainly sounds like it, and would be the logical next step. "Pro-life" people are ridiculous anyways, they're mostly conservatives so they don't give a crap about all those lives lost in the US' foreign military conflicts or Gitmo or the capital punishment being inarguably anti-pro-life. Just be (wo)man enough to call it like it is, "anti-abortion", not "pro-life", and admit that you're letting your religion dictate the laws and regulations of what is supposed to be a secular society.
Actually whilst I still like Capaldi as a person and an actor, this is not his finest moment.
This march was in large part organised by a woman who supports Sharia law and is a hamas supporter. She has called Sharia law "reasonable" and "misunderstood".
The whole march is a joke and Capaldi has just made himself look like a virtue signalling idiot with this.
For all the people that can't understand why there was a Women's March:

Women marching (in part) to protect access to vital health care & control over their reproductive choices is a weak excuse? Okay. Sad - and wrong - but, okay.
I truly despair over the state of our society now.
Trump's "win" has legitimized the worst impulses of the most ignorant sectors of global society
his dark influence will only grow during his term(s) in office. Logic, intelligence, honor & decency will take generations to recover from the unfit POTUS Americans have inflicted on the world.
That alone is worth protesting on a daily basis.
Just a man who was elected president and have little effect on the world. You can say the same about most presidents of most countries.

Marching without reason might give people hope and good feelings, but at the end of the day, it won't make a change.
It's more of a situation where you need to pick your battles and wait for the real atrocities and injustices propagated by Trump, before marching through the streets. If anything, it will change minds, which, like it or not, is the only way to make a change.
"If it was good enough for them ..."
Then those who march now - or who support those who march - are in good company.

You've decided the March was without reason. You're incorrect.
Unfortunately with Trump, there are plenty of battles to pick.
Marching through the streets is the primary method of change selected by Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr.
Con man? I don't see it, but then again, I might have missed something important.
I know I should provide some links but I think in this climate where "alternative facts" and "fake news" are so heavily ingrained into the discourse it would serve no point.
Women want to be equal? They can start by insisting the best actress awards at the Emmys and Oscars are removed. Just have one Award and men and women are both considered for it.

But what I was getting at is that as the world now turns, the US is the only veritable super power there is. Minding our own business always includes taking America into account, because with wanting to be a world leader (regardless of who's currently your president) comes a permanent place at the world's stage. Maybe it shouldn't be so, but it is. Great power, and all that.
