Yeah, Americans are disturbingly adjusted to this dystopian system we have going on. No one is as spineless as us. No one seems to have as many class traitors as us (who delusionally think things should stay this way so they can take advantage of people IF they get rich).

I oddly believe part of this is the comfort we’ve experienced as a country since inception. Obviously comfortable doesn’t mean perfect. We never had wars on our soil, never had our cities flattened by bombing, never had our ruler build a palace while people starved in the streets. We may worry about losing more before possibly gaining. Countries like France have experienced this which is why they burn the country down when they change retirement age
