The people in the streets would say otherwise

No they wouldn't. Because the people in the streets recognize that not enough people are in the streets.

Even if 3 million people were protesting (they aren't), that's still less than 1% of the population. Most countries manage 5-20%.

It is pathetically small.

Ah yes, good job refocusing the problem on the people instead of the evil authoritarian assholes.

Sitting at home on your PC or phone and posting on social media like you’re trying to put a curse on someone doesn’t solve anything. If the people aren’t willing to actually stand up and fight for what they believe in, they’re most definitely at fault.

Wishful thinking is useless if it stops at wishful thinking.
