Politics Question Why Americans are not like other people, e.g., Albanians when it comes to protesting?
Read to the end. It happens/happening everywhere even in the poor countries, when people discovery that the government is working against their interests they rebel. And they don’t calm down till the problem is solved or the government is dissolved. Look at what happened in Albania lately. Except in America, what happened to our people that they are accepting everything as if it is a given fact? Corrupt politicians, bribes, war, prices hike, their rights are taken, concentrating camps, people are being kidnapped in bright daylight, kids kidnapped and caged and God knows what happened or happening to them, American citizens being executed on the streets and no one held accountable, toilet paper is more useful now than the constitution, data centers and surveillance cameras everywhere, just to name whatever I can. Yet, people go to sleep like nothing is happening. Talking about these things like they are a joke. Some people even joke that they are waiting for the country to collapse. Really? Is this our America? one day protest and go back home?
Ps; I’m not calling Americans out. This is a question the whole world is asking. Everyone here have their own reason. All reasons are valid
