I recall reading somewhere that it only takes 4% of the population to start a revolution. Most people won’t take a side. And most of them will just go along with whomever wins.

It just has to be the right 4%. None of these folks seem like the kind of leader who would lead a revolution.

That %# was in “politically closed” societies. Like the czar component prior to the red revolution.

It’s worse in the USA... We The People are KING here (remember?) and we often vote in the single digit or low teens percentages — and then, with too little knowledge of who or what we’re voting for.

It’s sad, and we need to fix it if we hope to continue as AMERICA.
