You need to account for the fact that it is simply not feasible for large percentages of the country to congregate into one place the way it is in most of Europe. There's the size disparity, lack of affordable and accessible public transport around the country e.g trains (they do exist but very sparingly), and just the significantly fewer worker rights and wages that would allow people to do those things without completely upending their entire families wellbeing, which is part of the point from the enemy yes, but that's because it's effective.
And this is what happens when The People continue to wait until the bad news are choking them personally before doing something about it... the combination of "fuck you, got mine" and apathy took you here and I am sorry to tell you there is no way out by being extra quiet
What makes you think I'm being quiet? I've attended multiple protests in the past month alone. Surely you know that just because something isn't in the news, doesn't mean it didn't exist?
