The No Kings protests are large and have been occurring over the last year. It’s disingenuous to imply the population is doing nothing but comment online. The US is a large country with the third largest population in the world. It’s not homogenous.

Despite all that, it’s probably still prudent to decouple from the US.

Only 1.2–1.8% of the U.S. population attended a No Kings Day event.
I share your anger at the US' decent into authoritarianism, but 1.8% is nearly 1 in 50. That's pretty huge for a protest by most counts.
