where are the riots for better wages, housing, better public services, for actual politicians that are public servants out to do right for the citizens they themselves depend on, for worker's rights, or for anything?
what happened to the US?
We can’t do that cause that’s sOcIaLiSm (sarcasm)
We're also really tired from our demanding jobs. Most of us also can't just suddenly take time off work to protest these things.
Plus it's effort driving from our homes to wherever the protests may be. I'm being partially facetious here, but these all play a factor in this.
True. Can’t even get our Election Day as a federal holiday. The USA is a fucking sham.
Always has been.
The only time I've ever heard of a protest was after the fact. Hard to join without a time machine.
If you want to get in on protests check out news reports for organization names and get in contact. They'd love to have more people.
