This. The average American isn't uncomfortable enough to make a stand. They still have food, jobs, housing, schools, transportation. While the average American's needs are met, I doubt much will happen.

Americans also love to victim blame. This poor woman was violently abducted by people in masks and the first response of most Americans will be to ask "what did she do to deserve it?"

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
