I still don't understand how anyone can continue to tolerate this situation. There are no significant civil protests, no visible political backlash. Everyone seems to be either passively accepting the current state of affairs or simply waiting for it to blow over (the majority appears to even support the ongoing cleansing of the country).

I mean the no kings protests were absolutely massive, but if you didn't happen to go out that day you may not have seen them

I wish there was more, but people are protesting, but generally it can only be but so big, but so regularly 🤷‍♂️

I do wish there was more though.

That was only the largest protest in us history. But "nobody's doing anything" according to people not in the us.

“nobody’s doing anything” according to the people who weren't at the No Kings protest.

Next step is mass violence I expect. If they legit start to target Democratic leaders and not Republicans over the Epstein list, I would hope the people rise up.
