There's a lot of young people lying flat in resistance to the government and societal pressures. Add to that growing gender imbalances and inequality, they're ripe for fermentation.

Just because they can't openly call for the end of the government, doesn't mean they support it.

Learning that your government blatantly murdered peaceful protestors has an effect on a population. Along with some minor social distress, that's enough to start a revolution.

Fascists are obsessed with controlling the narrative because they know the truth makes them look like the weak, uncreative, and ineffective.
