Probably don't want to die tbh
Murican here. I just lack a spine like the rest of my countrymen. No sense making excuses.
You probably also have access to food and basic infrastructure and services. That gives you incentive not to risk your life violently overthrowing the government.

Do you expect people who are living paycheck to paycheck to give up their lives to die, be homeless or permanently disabled?
Do you imagine people in Nepal to have big savings accounts and investments in NVidia?
Truth is - if you are not bothered enough by the situation to risk your confort and way of life, then you are ok with the situation and accept it.

Set fire to the Capitol. Got it
We tried in 2020, libs quickly coopted the movement by pretending to be at the front of it and that we had less radical demands, defused it by pretending to agree to those demands, and then supported republicans in opposing any of the demands, with Biden telling states to divert covid funds to police. Before I left, people seemed too tired and beaten down to really try again.
