@earthtospire@youreeyeah@ixosyd It’s unrealistic to believe that America could protest the way that France does, the US is 18 times larger than France and has 5x their population. You’d have to expect tens of millions of people across 50 states to stage simultaneous protests
@earthtospire@youreeyeah@ixosyd French is centralised around Paris, meaning protests can cause meaningful disruption. France has a culture of insurrection. Protests in France are protected by labor laws. America lacks these and fear protest because it could cause the loss of jobs with zero guarantee of change
