So I attended the “No Kings” rally in Boston earlier today. It looked more like a repurposed Pride rally than an anti-Trump rally, really, and that’s because it was: Boston’s Pride parade got repurposed into the “No Kings but Drag Kings” parade. This was smart in terms of boosting the crowd size — there were a lot more people present than attended the rather pallid anti-Elon protest I attended in Boston a few months ago, which drew numbers in the dozens. This event definitely drew thousands.

But while there was plenty of anti-Trump stuff, I’m not sure there was any more than a regular Pride parade would have featured. There did seem to be more commie stuff than usual, though, so that’s something. Some pictures that I took follow:

One of the smart things about the co-branding with Pride is that corporate outfits would show up who would have skipped a purely anti-Trump event, like this local media truck.
