You traded it for tiktok and other shiny things. The last nine months has proven that modern humans as a whole will go out of our way to not do a damn thing about a LOT of bad shit as long as we still have access to our ipads, smartphones and streaming services.

Americans (and yes...Westerners in general) are so addicted to their creature comforts that we'll excuse almost anything in order to avoid the inconvenience of not having them if we stand up and actually revolt.

It's utterly disgusting.
