Signs show a revolutionary spirit at October 18 No Kings demonstration
San Diegans use humor to express outrage at another peaceful party rally
The October 18 No Kings demonstration downtown at Waterfront Park attracted another peaceful crowd that arrived with handmade signs of various kinds. Attendees were eager to express their outrage at the current administration, and to do so amid a party atmosphere.
When I went by trolley, it was mostly a senior crowd on the way to the event. A woman had a sign that poked fun at Trump's hair loss. Some used photos and artwork for their signs.
Others said how they felt with straight text. More young adults were showing up as I got closer to Waterfront Park.
Even though there are children who were not alive when Obama was president of the United States, this little girl carried a sign that praised Barack Obama .
Many of the attendees sought to convey their message with jokes.
Others took a more educational approach.
Humor was a big part of the protest. A man held up a sign that parodied The Brady Bunch TV series. Instead of the opening credits featuring the cast, there was The Shady Bunch (Donald Trump and seven members of his administration)
Cosplay was even more prevalent than at previous demonstrations. Many of the getups were whimsical, as if daring anyone to find them menacing.
Most everyone had something to say about kings.
There were a number of young women promoting the cause of feminism. Feminism has had a big revival because of the influence of the Me Too movement.
It appeared that many comic book fans were in attendance. A fan of Creature Commandos (the animated series based on the comic book characters that appeared in the Weird War Tales comic) held up a sign that that depicted G.I. Robot. At a trolley station, I saw a young man dressed as Batman.
There were attendees who made their costumes a work of art.
The handmade aesthetic was strong.
Many feel that the way Trump has talked about women makes him sound like a sexual predator. The Access Hollywood "Grab 'em by the pussy" tape is referenced by these two women.
There are protestors who seemingly identify with the rebel fighters in Star Wars. One woman had a sign that showed the image of Princess Leia.
Inflatable costumes seem to be more popular than ever at these events, another attempt to appear more whimsical than angry.
The press gathered around the speakers at the march. Sara Jacobs, the politician, hung out as each person spoke.
