Saturday was #WomensMarch2018 — which was impossible to miss if you spent any time on Twitter’s home page, what with the live feed and all — but there certainly seemed to be a lot of pictures from 2017 floating around on social media today, like this one from Asheville, N.C.

OK, let’s talk about crowd size.

The crowds are ENORMOUS everywhere, but someone just posted this of Asheville (relatively small city) BUT the turnout is BEYOND BELIEF INCREDIBLE ‼️‼️‼️#WomensMarch2018 pic.twitter.com/L1KP2GOP1c

This photo is making the rounds on Twitter, with claims that it’s the march in Asheville, NC today. It’s actually from last year’s march. pic.twitter.com/wg4PJZ5f4K

This shot of D.C.’s 2017 march got a lot of play as well.

Check out this massive crowd in Austin, then.
What is it with this guy and last year’s photos?

Why are you sending out a picture from the 2017 march with this year's tag? Like, this was a 30 second Google image search, man.

That's a photo of last year's march.

Serious question. Why are all of these huge accounts tweeting pictures from last years march and saying it is this year? #WomensMarch2018 https://t.co/BMUI1Ctf8e

Here's another. I don't get it. If the crowds were larger this year why are they all tweeting last year pictures? https://t.co/lt54xRjKPU
— Artist_Angie: Sensei of Sarcasm (@Artist_Angie) January 21, 2018
And another.
Same pic as the gentleman in 1st tweet (he has since deleted) used.
WHY DO THIS. Just show the pictures from 2018 if it was record numbers. https://t.co/wloKSjOAwQ— Artist_Angie: Sensei of Sarcasm (@Artist_Angie) January 21, 2018
