It has been a truism throughout history that most people just want live their lives in peace. Equally true is that there is always a small group of assholes that can’t be happy for one stupid reason or another and find a way to make it everyone else’s problem.
brutal take. I’m guessing you felt that way about…Russia’s fall to fascism, Hong Kong’s protest failures, Iran’s protesters a few years ago, NK in general, Chinese espionage and destruction of their native minority populations, The Hungarians not saving their democracy etc etc. All those citizens are babies too right? asking for help from the global community in some cases, and being ignored. woah. such toddlers. Not being able to resist the systems of power in their nation states and fixing their problems. All they had to do was rise up! such babies.
I guess my point is…unless your French. stfu.
If you are French, you rock I’m sorry to be a dick.
I think statistically it’s something like 60-75 percent of the whole country hate trump. of that only like 1/3 are chronically following things enough to always BE upset and have pretty much the daily collection of all the things he’s done. Then of that group, maybe half actually protest about it while the rest kind of just do this, chat online and look around at people that agree with them to blow off steam. It sucks but yeah.
Numbers will change as gen alpha and gent z get brought up in an internet that distracts them and brainwashes them to the right but yeah. That’s kind of the picture. A small group of activists are out there doing stuff trying to put out the house fire and the rest of us are online complaining that it’s getting hot.
It’s never been about what’s right or even what’s popular. It’s always been about what the people in power think they can get away with. Right now the people in power are increasingly seeing that they can get away with anything and they seem to have learned from recent history how to make sure they always will.
