And I’m not being a smart ass here, or trying to prove anything, I’m genuinely curious as to why there hasn’t been even a small protest In our streets. Americans are not unfamiliar with protesting, although certainly not as keen on it as the Europeans.
A friend who lives in Greece asked me this and I came up with several answers, but they seemed a little lame.
What say you?
I think they tried to on January 6th, people were made examples of, now we’re scared to take action. DS Mission accomplished.
Yep exactly. Which is a testament to just how corrupt and “3rd world” we are here in the US…we can’t even go out and peacefully protest without being in fear of our opposing party knocking on our door a year later to haul us off to prison, and keep us there without bail or right to a speedy trial. It’s time to take our Country back!!!!
J6 was started by lefties
Because we have a huge media problem in this country and people believe it.
There could be protests too just obviously not televised. They create the 'supply and demand' of what's happening.
I mean look at the lgbtqia issue. According to pew less than 1% of Americans identify as trans and around 3% gay. Though in that same pew research article the average American thought 25% of the population was gay. Why? We have been so bombarded with lgbtqia bs that it made it seem that the issue was extraordinarily large with a large gay population, when In actuality, it is an extremely small community.
My guess is similar The government in the US has more ways to sanction people because people are more reliant on government systems.
In the US (and Europe) we know we are being tracked and watched individually and crossing a nebulous undefined boundary could severely impact our lives.
It's 25 degrees and snowing outside.
17 here in nm
Can someone point out a time where taking to the streets accomplished something? And, I don’t mean NWO organized color revolutions, or DS staged actions to scare RINOS, or more likely give them cover?
Boston tea party comes to mind
After everything I've learned I wonder if things unfolded as we were told, but instead was an early example of memetic warfare.
I actually wonder if all wars are actually won or lost in the minds of the people first regardless of the "actual" events.
I was thinking the same thing. After the protests in Brazil, what exactly happens next?
Mahatma Gandhi, peacefully!
True. It took well over 20, years, and World War 2, but India did finally become independent.
We were in the streets, for two years getting heckled. As the November counting continued. As Jan 6th passed. As Jan 20th passed. We called, we emailed, we showed up. The school board meetings, the cyber symposium, the AZ audit, and thats not even getting into 2022.
Not a lot of but a small group of people have never stopped being out there with our flags and signs. It has brought me zero results.
But it brought me to people i never would've met, it made me stronger than ive ever been in the face of hecklers and the left seething over a Trump Won flag in 2022. I didn't affect change but at least we showed others the contrast of our courage to their cowardice.
Weapon laws. Brazil can’t carry outside the home. It can only escalate so far. We know when we go out, it is a last resort because we know what we are capable of and will likely go there.
bingo
This is the best answer I have seen so far on this thread, IMHO.
Work. Drink. Football. Work. Drink. Football. What are you going to do run around your town yelling about the election? Shut up we got football to watch loser.
Because those of us that are based don't want to be locked in the DC gulag with no trial and have the rest of America forget about us.
Without the numbers protests are futile, we would need popular support, we don't have it. The masses are hypnotized.
Q conditioned us to vote not to protest
Obey or we'll take away your netflix.
Pretty much And your Tostitos.
how many people in the US actually know about that other than people on this site? far too many Americans are under the spell of the msm
"the military is the only way"
Americans WOULD go to the streets if the military was fixing the election theft.
Jan 6
Talking Heads/fake experts / stfu and do what you're told /"conspiracy theorists" bad / let us take care of it / all revolutions bad / only traitors and troublemakers question authority / Trickle down/"They're only taking the jobs we don't want"/wall street ticker tape scrolling across the news screen as the economy is raped by Wall Street/ corporate whore politicians and their bribing lobbyists/ too much to lose and too big to fail.
I'm amazed some are only now waking from the nightmare they slept through.
Too many smaller, separate outcomes, some of which have been slow-rolled with different timings. The Brazilian election had one main outcome, which was announced within a reasonable, predictable window of time.
Because the DS scared everyone from protesting with their glowies and the weaponized justice system, ANTIFA, etc.
Because decent people have jobs and families to take care of. The rest are paid protesters.
Maybe its because those who know are waiting and trusting The Plan: those who don't trusting MSM?
I hope the plan is a good one. God help us.
Just watched Lara Logan interview about the satanists and it’s almost too ugly to hear.
This.
Brazil plummeted into borderline Anarchy almost 20 years ago
Plus in Brazil the globohomos are trying to reinstall a corrupt ex-president who they sprung from prison so Brazilians have much more reason to be pissed.
we are no where near as hurting as they are economically. Ask yourself why? That's a better question.
Greeks are known to protest. Probably why he asked. Americans have become too complacent to fight back, imo.
Because we're soft and don't want confrontation, much easier to stay home in comfort then to Risk Everything to come to the defense of your country. If I was Xi I would be watching us closely as w have Never been so vulnerable to Armed invasion as we are Now. We're divided, leader less and while we talk a good game regarding our guns I believe if Challenged Most will surrender them if push comes to shove. Even if Xi doesn't if their Steal goes forward unchallenged then the commies Here will move forward to pack the court then come to remove the 1st and 2nd amendments. Once that is done gun registration and confiscation follow. If we won't confront stolen elections then it follows we will roll over like cattle when they come for the guns and They Will.
I think Trump’s rallys are protests. People feel safe doing that
Yes! You’re right!
People are waiting until it is certified.
Personally think the federal system and constitutional protections have saved us Americans from a lot of pain that others have suffered. Take churches: about half the country, state by state, had no problem at all going to church every week; the other half suffered temporarily, but big court wins protected their right to assemble. The same restriction on another country would have nothing to stop it. Ivermectin, same thing. We have been spared a lot of pain that others have borne.
There was an analysis by a historian, who was a general officer, of three wars: Korea, WWII and Vietnam. In that paper, based on equipment/supplies and so forth, he stated that during WWII, statistically, about 30% of the soldiers actually fired on the enemy. During Korea, that rose to roughly 50%, and during Vietnam, the number was 95%. Yet, WWII was "the greatest generation", Korea was forgotten, and Vietnam was baby killer losers. When I got out of service, after about two years of flying helos as a CSAR crewman, with a PUC and other decorations, I was spit on (in 68 also, after Tet), my parents wanted nothing to do with me, the VFW told me to leave their facility (we want nothing to do with you), likewise the American Legion, and the VA told me to go back where I came from (San Diego). At the time, the druggos were rampant, and the only places vets could be in peace were military towns or out in the woods, away from everyone. Those who would stand in support were either in the South or they were expunged. LBJ's programs gave support to those who wouldn't work; I lived on the street for months, sleeping in doorways of businesses, on cardboard and under newspapers.
The only thing that got me out of that was the determination that those cocksuckers won't beat me. Americans in general don't have that determination. They didn't after Korea. After Vietnam, or any of the other bullshit wars the politicians have immersed us in. Only a few have that, and they aren't necessarily those who join the military.
The idea that 'patriots' are too busy working is bunk: most simply don't want to be bothered. They are willing to simply accept the promises that vets and certain others won't. Many will piss and moan 'it's just not right', but action is out of the question. Others join BS organizations such as III%, which would go out and get killed by skilled soldiers in short order.
Even now, with this election crap going on, most will do nothing. Hell, most people haven't even got a month supply of food. Millions see an AR and wet their pants. People on here talk about the hundreds of thousands, or millions, of hunters ready to defend their country. Bullshit. Most would simply lay down their guns and get on their knees, however much they talk shit.
So the answer to the question really is simple: Americans are generally chickenshits who will cower when a bullet flies on by.
Well said.
Because if we go out and PROTEST we are asking to be arrested on trumped up charges and have our lives destroyed. On top of that protesting won’t do shit when our politicians don’t give a fuck.
I think bc we're complacent, behind our phones, afraid of looking weird. My shower thought last night was maybe I will start standing outside my Governor's Mansion with my "Action" resting on my shoulder 16 hours a day for the next 45 days to see if anyone will join me... am I committed to not doing my job for that? Likely no. But it's a thought.
Laziness, stupidity, lack of effort....
I dunno, the years of people claiming white hats have everything under control and we're just watching a movie? Talking heads constantly telling us to play ball with the system and not resort to the tactics of the left? If we quit taking the high road and played by the same rules they do, this whole situation would ever have developed.
Y'all are trusting the Plan, right? Enjoying the Show?
They did. On January 6.
