75% of Americans side with the United Auto Workers. Why aren’t more Americans in the streets as a show of support?

John Fea   |  September 16, 2023 Leave a Comment

More information here.

When the George Floyd was killed, Americans took the streets in protest. When Donald Trump was elected president, the #MeToo movement took the streets in protest. Why don’t we see similar uprisings in support of working class Americans fighting for better wages?

Princeton historian Matt Karp nails it:

Who is going to tell the liberals that the 75% includes most “fascists”, “authoritarians”, and would-be destroyers of American democracy?

Who is going to tell the leftists that the 75% includes Oliver Anthony? 🙈
