This is slightly off-topic (it's actually a question), but, a few days ago I submitted a link to reddit about a demonstration where 10%~ of the total population of the island went to (100k~ ). Also, there's an "end-less" teachers strike going on too, with a "resistance box" (to cover what those teachers loose for going on a strike) that already has 300k€ + a Miro painting (10k). It was absolutely ignored by reddit (+2), probably because it happened in a rather-stranded island that barely anyone in the US knows (Mallorca, Spain).

IMO it's a big deal (you don't see the 10% of the total population of a region going to a single demonstration too often, it would be like seeing 837M~ in NY) as well as demonstrating how a society can unite towards a single end (the 300K~€ in that "box" + the Miro painting [donated by one of Miro's heirs]), so it was weird to see reddit ignoring it.

I guess it would be okay to post it here (if I can get google to translate it to english, goddamnit!), right? (tags being... #news and #eupolitics, maybe?)

It's OK to post whatever you want (you know, anything legal and non-abusive). There's no need to ask permission to use a tag.

I meant if those would be the right tags for that history rather thank asking permission to use them.
