Looks bigger than the U.S protests sadly.

The media is actively misleading about US protest and their frequency and size. Coverage has been extemely minimal and downplaying how many are protesting. There have been protests larger than this in the US. Copying my comment from elsewhere on a related thread

Here's one from yesterday with 1000 people in Boise, Idaho
