I wish protests like that could/would happen in the US.

I think that maybe ‘economic insecurity’ might actually be a fitting reason that we don’t do it. No one can afford to take the time off work, and a lot of people are afraid of the economic backlash that might occur if they attend a protest, or are arrested for non-violent resistance. Not to mention the fear of what the cops might do with you.

Have to get to “nothing to lose” territory before this type of protest takes off
