Psychotherapist calls 'No Kings' protests group therapy

Read, Watch or Listen

At Washington’s 'No Kings' protest and sister rallies, thousands denounced what participants called President Donald Trump’s 'kingship' and authoritarianism, as inflatable chickens and other costumes bobbed above largely educated White women in their 40s, according to American University researchers. Psychotherapist Jonathan Alpert told Fox News Digital the movement reflects 'group therapy'—a search for community and validation driven by 'therapy speak' that can blur activism with emotional catharsis. He cautioned that protesters may project personal anxiety or anger and wrongly equate the effort with the Civil Rights Movement.
