    We’ve had protests like this in the past which failed miserably. Look up “occupy wall street”. Americans don’t like protesting that ends up disrupting the economic machine. We protest by disrupting the political process. It actually can work in our favor this time since trump and his cronies are the ones disrupting the economic machine. We just need other countries to keep up the pressure economically while we put political pressure on the current administration.

      I wouldn’t not protest to save the economy now, since that is out the window.

      I don’t know if occupy accomplished anything, but the George Floyd protests were massive.

      Americans can protest. I just don’t get the late stage capitalism stockholm syndrome.

        Low cost of goods is what keeps the peasants in line. It’s kind of our identity at this point.
