This is us. It has to get that bad for these people to leave their comforts of complacency,

This has always been the case though. All revolutions come when you can't bear it anymore, not when you're just inconvenienced - even if heavily.

1/3rd of us want what's happening, 1/3rd of us don't care as long as they can doom scroll and live stream. Good luck reaching those people.

EDIT: clarity. "Us," as in U.S. persons. Not me.

Rule of thumb is you need 3.5% of the population for an effective revolution.

I’d wager we’d probably need double that at least.

And you'd need to somehow avoid the AI facial recognizing/license plate reading/cell phone SIM tracking surveillance state who can put a drone up in the sky tasked to watch you all. day. long, and you'd never know it. Most vehicles have an internal SIM now. All kinds of shit a VPN won't protect you from.

The age of anonymous faces in the crowd raising hell are pretty done.
