Go to Truesizeof.net and look at how fucking big America is. It's roughly as big as all the countries involved with the Arab Spring events added together but it would basically have to be overthrown all at once. We can't overthrow Virginia then slowly work our way around to other states.
People outside America act like we are doing nothing but there are protests, riots, and people are getting disappeared by ICE every day. There is no magical way to get a few million people to roll over the White House becuase the president has his own very violent army (ICE) and much of the military supports him becuase they fired all the generals who didn't.
We are not spoiled fat lazy childten. Most of us work at least two jobs and still live paycheck to paycheck. Roughly 60% of the population is one paycheck away from homelessness.
.....but yeah all Americans are lazy fat fucks for not fixing a situation you have never been in or offer any real solutions for.
