I'm constantly flabbergasted that Americans continue to expect institutions to do the resisting while they do nothing.
Well, . . . who do you think the institutions are?
And the people being blamed are the people considered to be in charge of the institutions. Not the other people "following orders", not the people still patronizing the institutions, and not the people complaining about the institutions doing nothing why they do nothing themselves.
What do you mean, nothing? They did a parade and made signs! It was the BIGGEST parade! They all said “we don’t like this!” That wasn’t at all a big clown show- totally effective.
