    Americans have strong feelings about creeping fascism and like to bitch on social media but that’s about the extent of it. They’re too downtrodden and distracted to do much else. In France if they raise tuition 2% the whole country takes to the streets, riots ensue, cars are burnt. In the US, jaw dropping acts of fascism, cronyism, and corruption happen daily and beyond rage posting it’s mostly crickets. At least there is protesting at the RNC.

      I only get two weeks paid leave a year. Can’t afford to miss work because I need my house more. Live in a reddest of red states where my votes never mean anything. Legitimately I have never voted for anyone that has won.
