cant believe this still needs to be said, but: stop following altNPS. none of them work for the NPS and they exist to do Qanon numbers station crap and sell merch. its annoying for a lot of us that are actually NPS. thanks

I know a lot of folks like this account. But this is a wild, and unhelpful, exaggeration--it's a resistance version of sean spicer. It veers into #resistanceporn and trades accuracy for clout, like other "blue maga" grifters on here. Pls consider finding other sources of inspiration/news/motivation
Post from "alt national park service" account reading "From coast to coast, city streets to small town squares, you showed up. And it mattered. Honored to announce: 12.1 million in attendance."
The 12.1 million figure is 300 percent more than every estimate produced by experts and scholars who carefully went through nationwide reports.

Alt NPS is a resistanceporn dodgy acct., posting bollocks to clout-chase, same as many other BlueAnon grifters out there

Indicative, but not reliable or definitive. At least they have a methodology.

Earlier numbers had no methodology and deserved to be pooh-poohed, as I did pooh-pooh them.

Agreed -- I'll take 5M as their reasonable estimate, though I know there were additional protests not registered

If those numbers are correct, we are now past the 3.5% it takes to overthrow a dictator
