From my mastodon post:

It wasn't as big as the Women's March, but it had that size vibe. I did not get close enough to any speakers to hear them, either at the beginning in the Common or later after we "marched" to Government Center. Really it was an extremely slow stroll as the huge crowd covering half of Boston Common had to squeeze onto the street.

I hooked up with my daughter and a friend of hers, surprisingly we both had cell service, so we were able to locate each other. By the time we got to Government Center, other people were already leaving, having had enough of standing around in the rain. (It did not rain very hard, but enough for people to deploy umbrellas or pull up their hoods.) I was there until my train left so I stuck around reading signs. I had seen a number of them before. My daughter got a kick out of "Porsche: fast. Ferrari: faster. Tesla: Fascist".

Favorite new chant: "We the People! Are Getting Pissed Off!"

The friend had been to a few of the "Tesla Takedown" protests at the Boston Tesla dealership. I have mixed feelings about the whole thing, since I'm not ready to realize the $30,000 loss by dumping our very devalued Tesla and then having to buy a replacement. So we're driving it, with one of those "we didn't know" stickers.
