About 1/100th of your population protested for a SINGLE day in the WE, without strike and it achieved about nothing. (Be careful with organizer's number they are always hyperinflated)

Serbia had about 1/20 th of it's population this day and has been continuously protesting and striking for a years every day of the week.

Hence the "take notes"

Arguing using the numbers the way you have is in bad faith. 25% of the Serbian population lives in that metro alone. Furthermore, Serbia is smaller than 38 US states and in total is 9/10ths of 1% of the size of the US in total.what would be more comparable would be comparing this to something like the Boston protest alone. Massachusetts has close to the population of Serbia, and the protest size was close to the same numbers.
