i just did a google to see if i cd find some numbers. depressing.
i found a couple mentions of 5-6 million, but they’re tying themselves in knots to hide it.
nyt, wapo, just from the google snippets (cuz everything is paywalled now) keep saying thousands, and things like- thousands in philly, or this city or that city. only bbc is mentioning overseas crowds.
wapo fb page snippet says thousands and they’re getting reamed in the comments.
many headline the couple of incidents of “VIOLENCE!!!!”.

and ppl wonder y were heading to the shitter.
