What we are living through is a deliberately constructed fog of lies and grievance with one purpose only: to keep us screaming at each other about bathrooms and brown-skinned invaders while the people writing the checks rob us blind.
The US populace have been beaten into apathy and submission
The majority are either for it, or they simply shrug their shoulders
When people are enslaved through their employer being able to fire them on the spot (which I know isn’t the law everywhere in the US, but still) and put them at risk of ruin because there is no safety net, and healthcare is tied to employment, people bow their heads and just try to survive
I get what you mean. The country needs way more coordination and getting others active alongside themselves in person and online regardless. If a company fires them then they come together and make a better new company letting people know about it so they switch to them too.
People don’t want to do it alone. Many people would be up for being against all this but not solo. Unity needs to keep being built and having people focused on it all

Hmm? I can get fired tomorrow at the drop of a hat if my boss felt like it. There is no law protecting me from that. The “compromise” is that I too can walk out the door and quit the second I feel like it without getting sued. If I understand correctly some states you cant even quit without some amount of notice or they can sue you.

I appreciate your edit
Most people here just dig in
For the record, I don’t dislike the American people. I spend lots of time there, and my fiancée is American
But as a country, it’s fucked, and always has been, just with a good PR program
