Where are the nationwide protests? The national strikes against the destruction of what is left of U.S. democracy? As for the eerie complacency of the Democrats, it is hardly surprising why there is such a huge loss of trust in the leadership of the Democratic Party.

    This feels like clickbait - I find it hard to believe the writers of this piece are unaware of the protests. The better question, perhaps, is “why does media refuse to cover the protests”, and the answer to that is obvious - the media (damn near all of it) is controlled by the very oliarchs we’re protesting.

      Precisely. The interests of rich oligarchs and multinational media conglomerates are one and the same.

      Independent news media is hard to find, but it exists, and looks nothing like the corporate slop regularly broadcast on cable tv.
