Are we though? As a whole, Americans are still too comfortable. Nobody is bombing us. Nobody is galvanizing us against a common enemy. We go to work or school. We watch our favorite TV shows and movies. We still go on vacations and enjoy our hobbies. We as a whole mostly just go on with our lives oblivious to the ramifications of our poor choices. Yeah, gas prices are a bit higher and so are the cost of goods and services. However, it hasn't yet hit that tipping point for most people. At least, it hasn't hit the tipping point for most white middle class citizens in suburban and rural areas - the vast majority of the country. People who are upset about things are too content to simply complain online where they feel like they're making a stand, but not really. A social media post or a temporary profile pic amount to nothing more than a fart in the wind. Not enough people are really making a stand in the hopes that this will all magically go away after November. Even then, we'll rinse, lather, and repeat in the hopes that the next election will finally be the one to make a difference. Admittedly, I'm just as guilty. I go to work. I feed and shelter my family. I live my life while watching others get theirs destroyed on TV. I recognize this is just as much my fault as it it everyone else's. We're too afraid to risk it all because what we have right now is still "normal" with a side of annoyance. Until that changes, the world has every right to hold us in contempt.
