Anyone going to the big protest today?

Is anyone planning on going to the big protest today against the government? Do you think it will be violent?
I will be there. I hope it won't be violent. I hope the government doesn't start anything. Already see they are putting warnings out. They probably will provoke the crowd so they can use violence. This warning was on the TVs of train stations today.

I am curious what one looks like but I always stay away from these. Take a look at the people going. Lots of young people that look like they don't work. Looks like they are going to a futbol match!


Those sure don't look like "retirees" to me.

Well everyone was warned. They are playing warnings on ALL trains and stations.

It’s not just a protest march for retirees, it’s a demonstration in their defense. That’s why people of all ages join. But after what happened last time, I don’t think many will show up.
 
There are more police than protestors. Things fizzled out.


This is really good, I agree with the peaceful protest. It's sad that last time a photographer who was covering the news got seriously injured. The problem is always the violent ones... and the victims are the retirees who receive a salary lower than 400,000 ARS . Although it's true that this has been an issue for many years, during Cristina, Macri, and Alberto’s administrations, and it could go further back in time, it has always been the most affected sector.
 
It seems like even the pensioners that went to the rally today agree they have it better under Milei vs. Massa! And this was on C5N which is usually very anti Milei yes?
