Problem is that for the majority of Americans “join a union” in 2026 means “start a union, and go up against a multibillion dollar company that is going to use endless amounts of money and lawyers to stop you”
Some people pull it off successfully. More fail and end up unemployed with shit unemployment and no healthcare.
historically, revolutions have followed times of great hardship, where the working class (or peasantry if we’re going back further) had nothing left to lose. They also frequently had wealthy backers in the shadows and/or charismatic leaders.
None of that is currently true of the U.S. If you want to call that laziness, fine, but then you have to recognize that humans were “lazy” for most of recorded history.
Historically i dont think we had a country/a people that has been flooding the world for decades with propaganda that they are the good guys and believing it themselves. Americans were never too lazy to tell the world how awesome they are.
Americans were also never too lazy to kill people. Probably only the easy kills. Hmm

I wonder how people were able to ever revolt and kill their masters when healthcare, etc is a pretty new thing.
I think US americans are just lazy, complacent and do want all this
You’re forgetting that the weaponry and surveillance are better now too.
