As has been said here before, not many cheered for Chelsea, Snowden, Reality or even Assange.
We can’t keep blaming the elite who rule us if we’re not willing to put boots on the ground and shut the nation down until politicians do the right thing.
And it’s not impossible … just look at France to see how it should be done.
There’s a severe lack of political will in the US that I attribute to both isolation and electoralism. Many if not most Americans believe the extent of their political actions should be voting for a president every 4 years and any political organization or movement outside of this typically gets co-opted or rebranded into something useless. America is very good at handling it’s citizens and very good at squashing radical political movements.
Most people simply don’t care because they don’t truly believe there is anything they can actually do about it. Better to just not worry about it.
