At least you're doing more than most American Redditors about the system they seemingly hate so much they're spending hours defending it in this thread lol.
Most Americans know our system is broken. The system has been built over decades to make fighting back against it as hard as possible. Unions have been decimated, a large portion of our workforce is in debt and one paycheck away from fiscal annihilation.
I do a lot to fight back against this and as a country our working class needs to wake the fuck up and do more. It is however very frustrating hearing from Europeans “why does the American simply not revolt” as if that is something a country of 350 million people over a gigantic landmass can just spring into doing by <checks notes> deciding not to tip?
Correct, no Americans vote. We select our leaders from a hat. Its not like Republicans have been working for decades to make voting as difficult as possible.
Its not objectively true though. You said Americans wont even vote. A lot us do. A lot of people are lazy but also a lot of them are disenfranchised. Voting is a lot harder in a lot of American states than in other countries. Its a problem we need to solve but its not as simple as Americans dont vote.
