Sorry but you clearly don't understand because you make the same tired arguments that work for the rest of the world where things aren't a nightmare but make no sense in the context of how life in the US specifically works, both due to absolutely zero social safety nets whatsoever and the fact that we can't all just hop on a train and be at the capital in a few hours for the equivalent of €20 or whatever

Then you've gotten so used to the meme of being the super smart enlightened non American educating the stupid fat lazy hamburgers that you ignore the countless times it is explained to you because no actually you are the smart one who knows everything better than us so clearly we are just wrong and stupid because you are correct and enlightened

How did the Protests during the Vietnam War happened? It is possible, but if you dont want to, you dont want to.

Or, maybe instead of insulting Europeans because no way they understand your special society, understand that your arguments are simply excuses to not revolt. Your zero safety net is reason enough to revolt. A pedo starting wars in your name is the follow-up.
You don't have to drive to DC to do something useful.
