Today in Boston. Over a million people turned out. Even the drone couldn't get it all. #NoKingsDay #BostonStrong #ICEProtest

Seeing a lot of commenters remarking that Boston's population is only ~650k, thinking they're "proving" this is fake, when in reality they're showing their ignorance about what Eastern Massachusetts is really like.

(Boston itself may be only 650k, but when you figure in the surrounding cities like Revere, Cambridge, Chelsea, Lynn, and all the other ones that are easily connected by rail or bus, the population is well over 3-4 million)

The footage isn't current (it's from the hands-off rally a couple months ago), but the turnout of over a million is accurate, at least according to local news sources.

Do you have a link to any of the local news sources for the Boston numbers turn out? I saw your comment and went to find them but haven't had any luck. Any direction you could point me in would help!

WCVB TV makes that claim but does not source it. I am not going to link to it because, well, I was there and it is a wild exaggeration. The conditions did not exist for 1M. But you can google it if you like.

I feel like they say 1 million go to boston pride every year and I'm really starting to question how they're getting those numbers...

Hm it does seem like it was a fantastic turn out from I'm hearing. But yeah hope misinfo about the numbers aren't being spread, it can be damaging. Massive respect to everyone who showed up! ❤️

Don't worry, it's not misinfo. Our Pride parade was today as well. Last year it was estimated that we drew a million people for Pride. So this combined event was easily more than a million.

All I could find was “organizers estimate”. There were a lot of people for sure but it doesn’t help the cause to repeat claims that are obviously exaggerated.
jun 15, 2025, 2:02 pm • 6 0 • view
The Boston Globe, no friend to Trump, reports this morning "Tens of thousands march in Boston's Pride festival." (Also noting "Nearly 100 'No Kings' rallies take place across Mass.") The Globe does not source this either but it strikes me as closer to the mark.
jun 15, 2025, 2:10 pm • 3 0 • view
I have been at rallies with 1M and could enumerate the ways this one, though spirited and excellent, did not come close. Exaggerations like this only convince those already on our side.
jun 15, 2025, 2:10 pm • 4 0 • view
I guess the question is how Boston Pride counts its attendance. They’ve reported a million attending/watching the past few years while the parade itself is a bit over 10,000 marchers (www.bostonherald.com/2023/06/10/m...). If spectators count as part of the rally, they’re using a different scale.
jun 15, 2025, 3:12 pm • 2 0 • view
Of course spectators count! But there just were not a million. I can't prove anything but I have been (and organized buses to) a 1M+ rally. It takes a lot of work to make that happen (and a lot more portapotties). This was an energizing, spirited quality event, just not on that quantitative scale.

Exactly. If we start this then everything will become obscure and muddied and can also be used against the movement. As I mentioned above: this can be damaging. Be proud of everyone who showed up, 1K or 1MIL it doesn't matter. Stay true! Stay Honest! ❤️

Hey hey hey! We will not stand for this MetroWest erasure 😤 We add at least another like quarter million people to the total. People not familiar with Mass don't understand the massive geographic catchment area that rolls in to Boston for these things. People were here from Providence, guaranteed.

"This" (video) isn't fake, but shows the April rally at Govt Center that drew about 30k. Today's Pride - No Kings parade ended on Boston Common. It harms the movement to post misinformation. @denisedwheeler.bsky.social should take that video down.

To get 1M people, like the 1982 peace rally in NYC, you need tons of buses from hundreds of miles away. But today's turnout was great, if not that big, and the parade was a blast. Photo: NYC 1982, what 1M looks like (we didn't come close) www.thenation.com/article/soci...

I wasn't at city hall but I did go to the parade/festival. It was a very large event, and spread out to the point where I honestly couldn't give you a fair estimate of crowd size. Pride itself covered a large part of the city.
jun 15, 2025, 2:36 pm • 0 0 • view
The Globe reports about 500 people at the party, which I am sure was a blast. The parade definitely was! (Globe also estimates "tens of thousands" in Boston and notes 100 local demonstrations in Mass. towns, some large.)

People come from cities all over the state - even other parts of New England. My commuter rail train (1 train on 1 of 13 lines) was almost full when it got to my stop (6 of 18, an hr from Boston) 1 stop alone took on 150 people. Standing room only packed like sardines. Double decker cars.

Pride in Boston usually gets a total of 750k-1m spectators, marchers, and festival goers. A million is very likely the total number of folks who attended these events today - just not a million at once. That video from April shows an event that ended up being 100k.
jun 15, 2025, 4:31 am • 6 0 • view
Is that in one day, or over days? When I look at those pictures of Rio with millions of people on the beach for Gaga, or Madonna, or Rod Stewart, those people are on top of each other. There's a scientific method for calculating crowd sized and it's fair to say the media (and cops) don't use it.

The Boston #NoKings event was an add-on to the Pride parade, whose organizers don't want folks marching unless part of a registered group. Thus, compared with other cities, Boston had a higher % of spectators who never made it to the Common. At 50 acres, it wouldn't hold 1M even at mosh-pit density.
jun 16, 2025, 2:28 pm • 1 0 • view
To be clear, the figure could well be a million if you include the people who cheered on the marchers but never went to the Common, as I think you should. There were also satellite protests throughout the area.

11-12 FULL football stadiums worth of people. I suspect there's a reason the stadium is 20 miles from downtown. How's the traffic around the stadium on game day? I'd like it if there were 1 MILLION people at the rallies, but logistically, it strains credulity.
jun 16, 2025, 2:54 pm • 0 0 • view
The area of the Common is 2,078,500 square feet, including the Frog Pond, ball fields and structures. Crowds can be low-density (1 person per 10 sqft), high-density (1 person per 4.5 sqft), and “mosh-pit density” (1 person per 2.5 sqft). See blog.education.nationalgeographic.org/2017/01/23/h...

yes, # correct - massive! but this image is wrong locale. the entire festival (after the 3 hour pride+no kings march) was at boston commons, not government center, shown here. this is prob the handsoff rally, which I also attended. unless there was a post pride block party at gov't center?

Why does ICE arrest and deport Afghans who helped Americans during the War? They were brought here and given protected status by Gov't because to leave them in Afghanistan would be a Death Warrant. American soldiers survived because of them. Did Trump make a deal with Taliban for these allies??

Definitely not what’s visible in the video. Looks like on the high end more like something like 50-75k. But Boston turnout is extra big because they combined with Pride, which I don’t think we see here. Great coalition-building!

Been to several rally's there over the past 20 years that I thought were close to 1/2 million but always got reported as 100k. This looks far larger, I bet at least 750,000 plus.

Maybe now all the images of 11 million at No Kings protests throughout the U.S. will scare the Trump Regime and Cult so much they won't be able to sleep at nights anymore.
