We still have too much to lose in a revolt. Most people are still materially comfortable (or at least that hasn't changed because of Trump).
What's fascinated me about the US is that they have a significant population of unhoused people, a lot of them having jobs too. And I kind of see that as their future. And they probably see that as their "worst case", which only adds to hatred of unhoused people.
There's an older term that is relevant: "lumpenproletariat".
If the masses see themselves as temporarily embarrassed millionaires, they don't see themselves as proletariat (working class). So you get the "rags to riches" story, but in reverse.
dude there hasnt been a good vote since i've been alive, the cope is annoying, none of these people are strait up winning kings or queens, you'll never hear them even talk that way. They will always be fat lazy pieces of garbage to humiliate us. It's not even a vote, it's a humiliation ritual. It's all over the globe, this degeneration, it's basically like cults took over the world for thier imaginery gods and they fight over them. They never progress.
Hasnt changed cause of trump yet
Yep. So give it time, we won't do shit until AFTER he burns it all down.
