    Photos of the protest show they’re pretty large, especially for a country with such a low total population. Maybe people just want to be free?

    edit: Photos actually remind me of the cease fire protests in Israel now that I think about it. Also a lower population country with a large contingent of upset people in it.

      Less than 20% of the Israeli population was upset at their government during the height of internal disapproval when the protests were going on. If that’s the standard to overthrow a nation, then Mexican immigrants should be in charge of Canada and the US.

        By what measure of disapproval? Not all Mexican immigrants are ready to rise up either.

        (And it’s only ~0.5% in Canada)

    The people want to be free as in Ukraine. Look how that “reasonable” policy worked out for them.

      Western governments & corporate media tell us that “the people” want to be “free,” but they don’t tell us which people nor what exactly “free” means to them. What we hear comes not from the people themselves but from Western propaganda channels. You & I don’t actually know what actual working class Georgian people actually want.
