I think our protests will grow in size once people start feeling the more devastating effects in their personal lives. Yes, I do think there's a lot of denial going on, and there's lots of gaslighting not only by magat media but also by mainstream media (all owned by oligarchs), with very little coverage of the protests. What little coverage they do, they're mostly focusing on the tesla/anti-Musk ones, and other things only if they get a lot of social media attention. And lots of misinformation and pro-trump propaganda on social media as well that downplays the severity of the transgressions being perpetrated.
Yeah huge problem right there! USA has an idea now that Democrats are left wing! while in reality Democrats are right of the center for most European countries.
Bernie and AOC are moderately left wing, and far from extreme, there is a pretty big left wing spectrum to the left of them too.
But USA lacks political nuances because of the 2 party system ingrained in the way democracy works in USA.
But still center or left of center for the US, which is more conservative and religious overall compared to Europe.
