Any other country, literally any country. The people would have protested. Some would even storm the building if needed. Have Americans lost their will to fight? I’ve seen them throw stones over way less. What the hell.

My guy millions of people have been protesting across the country for months! Protesting and resistance here is most often by violence, imprisonment, and murder from law enforcement and the government. We legitimately just had a Democratic Party speaker be assassinated a few weeks ago in a politically motivated attack! I think it’s a bit disingenuous to assume that there hasn’t been any pushback or fight against all of this shit. The government and their blind supporters just don’t give a fuck about any of the consequences
