People in Georgia have been protesting everyday for over a year (406+ days) but for whatever reason it’s not currently getting much media coverage likely because the media tends to not report on reoccurring protests.

There’s more information about the protests on the Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024–2026_Georgian_protests

Basically they’re protesting due to election fraud, democratic backsliding and protesting against pro-Russia policies, they want to be aligned with the EU.

      Protest without violence or the very real threat of it isn’t good. Look at the Belarus protests to see what happens when you don’t protect yourselves and give up all power to the state.
