    Yeah look distance isn’t the issue, it’s unity among a large population.

    Australua doesn’t struggle holding decent protests and it’s not much smaller in size, with a much smaller population.

    Lack of unity, combined with the lack of social safety net, plus individualism, all of which are pretty valid are the bigger reasons. If they were all on the same page or had some unity, the distance wouldn’t matter.

    I’ll say this as well; it seems US citizens aren’t willing to do hardship to get what they want. All of these probably make the easy way out, voting, an attractive option but selfishness stops that one.
