I shake my head in amazement when I see the huge crowds protesting in other countries and compare that to the few who bother to show up at protests here in Raleigh.

America has few or no mask mandates or restrictions on movements. You can travel anywhere in America and most of you don’t have to wear masks. People outside America are protesting the limitations on their bodily freedoms - masks are still required, some can’t gather in large groups, businesses are still restricted in their operations, movement inside a country and outside to neighbouring provinces or countries is limited. If you were still enduring those same restrictions, there might be more people protesting in the streets of the United States. I’m not sure Americans are more complacent; they may simply be more free, and therefore content, at the moment.
I agree with Linda; also that the US is so spread out and vast there is no one central main city as is some countries. AU is vast but the populated areas are mostly in the east and more crammed together. And of course the restrictions vary state by state; I don’t even know what the current ones are in my state which is run by a maggot pos CCP pervert whore criminal, but in the rural areas no one gives a s*** or pays attention to them anyway except the health clinic.
America may be less reactive due to more freedoms but it certainly doesn’t seem more free when visits to those in long term facilities are limited to 1 hour a week fully masked. And we are constantly under assault of threats to lose even that. Just my opinion.
