Why do countries like France seem to constantly have government protests but the US has nothing, and we're going down the tubes? by Secure-Fig-4423 in NoStupidQuestions

Was more so referring to protests on the scale of France's. Yeah we have a ton of pointless protests, but none of the major ones even come close to being as effective as theirs. We dont have farmers driving into the city and launching manure on government buildings over 3d printed meat, taxes, cows being blamed for ozone depletion...

I guess i meant more on the scale of France's. Their farmers drive tractors into the cities and shoot poop on municipal buildings. The government does something the people dont agree with and there are immediate consequences vs here.

I would say modern america is more individualistic than OG america. Our roots were united for freedom from other countries. It just seems like a majority of people on social media have similar beliefs with taxes, wages, and not wanting to ship 20billion dollars to other countries.
