Every Man a King

Today is the big day.
The No-Kings KingToday is the day that the forces of goodness and righteousness and correct pronouns take our country back from the twisted fascist psychopath who is exerting his despotic rule over us.
To demonstrate how widespread and deep the support for the No Kings movement is, it’s worth noting that today’s event in Minneapolis is sponsored by the local chapter of the U.S. Communist Party.
Based on the previous iteration of the event back in June, the occasion will largely be a Boomer affair, staffed by geezers in my age group doddering (or riding their mobility scooters) down the street carrying signs.
However, in major leftist citadels such as Portland, Antifa is urging the cadres to infiltrate the No Kings rallies and “show them what antifascism really looks like.” So the day may turn sporky in some zip codes.
I’m planning to honor the occasion this afternoon by visiting a rural wine festival. I checked the No Kings map, and the nearest planned rallies are in Lynchburg, Charlottesville and Farmville.
I don’t expect to encounter any anti-fascists where I’m going, but if I do, I’ll report on it here later this evening.
