      Wrong. Just look at your own history…

      • Rosa Parks.
      • MLK.
      • Vietnam war protests.

      To only quote the ones off the top of my head. I’d expect an American to remember these better than me.

        American education in a nutshell lol (which is part of the systemic problem, and by design)

        I don’t know about the Vietnam war protests, but the Civil Rights Movement was a lot more militant than do-nothing liberals would want you to believe. Look up the Black Panthers and people like Malcolm X, and even the peaceful side included real civil disobedience and obstruction. There’s no equivalence between what Americans are doing now and what MLK and crew did.
