Smithsonian begins removing exhibits, artifacts from African American History Museum

I wouldn't say 40% are "fine with this". Its more like 40% of Americans are some combination of: Uneducated by design, Brainwashed by decades of propaganda, Kept so far in poverty they can't focus on anything but their next paycheck, indoctrinated into toxic religious communities, etc. The current state of the US, has been carefully molded and shaped into what it is now by the fascists in power.

As for people not fighting back? Some are. Not enough of course, but that goes back to keeping people in poverty. It would take me, for example, 7 hours of driving just to get to my state capitol to protest. Not to mention a couple hundred $ in gas. People working two jobs and living paycheck to paycheck just can't do that realistically.

I hate that my country has turned into this fascist shithole and wish that more people would rally and fight. I hate that I'm sitting here making excuses for these people but I'm really trying not to lose my humanity in all this. The sad truth of the matter, though, is that people won't fight unless their life is disrupted so much that it snaps them out of their survival mentality. Bread and Circuses and all that.

Over 60 percent of Germans also didn't agree with the Nazis.
