I mean, it was indeed more than 100k, but that's just CDMX, The Zócalo was full and it can supposedly hold around 160k-200k people. There were protests in more than 100 cities

Another article I read, from the BBC, mention it was more like 500,000 or so. Good for them to stand up against authoritarians.

Man how do these people fill up an entire down town? Where do they find parking? I Want to organize a protest like this, but everyone got work, and the people downtown are rich so you're not gonna see them protest, and the people who need the better living conditions can't get downtown, there are hardly any busses.
