Then why isn't America rioting?

Because it didn’t disappear overnight

Can't riot against something being taken away if you never had it in the first place and have convinced yourself that you don't need it 🫠

They should be. Really.

Militarization of the police, and a extremely unfair, draconian, for profit prison system.

Maybe in a couple of days when Kaiser staff go on strike.

I'm an American in my mid 30s. I've traveled to other countries, made friends with people in other countries, and I myself lived in Germany for a few years. I'm pretty sure my view comes from an adequately knowledgeable position.
