    Are you people actually stupid? Everyone thinking Americans just take this stuff are fucking dumb

    In my life time protests have never stopped and sometimes they get stuff done. people have tried assassinating multiple presidents and members of Congress.

    Just because YOU aren’t fighting doesn’t mean the rest of us aren’t.

      I go to protests at my courthouse every week man. Like you said they never stop, but it also doesn’t stop what’s happening.

      It hasn’t stopped what happened to the federal government, and it wouldn’t stop a military takeover of Canada. The kind of fighting we need is considered “disruptive” by almost everyone, and there’s never enough people willing to do it. Not to mention the fraction of people who protest or do anything at all is so fucking small that I’m comfortable saying by and large, Americans are not fighting.
