"Obviously Americans don't care or they would have done something about this/they only care about their own comfort."

Oh. I've seen both of these a lot in the past few days and... I'm convinced a lot of this is divisive bot activity. But, oh, for those which are not... those people have little idea as to the actual conditions here, the state of the political system, the state of the voters, and the state of the country as a whole.

"You obviously don't care about other countries and peoples. If you cared at all you'd be in the streets right now until it was brought to a stop."

The vast majority of Americans are currently on the financial brink -- people are living paycheck-to-paycheck and protesting is a risk to one's wellbeing and literal life. Protest and lose your job, lose your job and you lose your family's health insurance, lose your health insurance and suddenly medication required for life such as insulin literally becomes unattainable. This is, of course, by design. People are pissed, people are furious, but people are also terrified, exhausted, and at the literal end of their abilities to do anything outside of survive. The last fifteen years have conditioned people to do anything they can to protect themselves from the threats inside this country and the flood of difficult news of the last few years has brought us to where people are today: a state of crushing, learned helplessness in which the exterior world outside the window appears perfectly normal but the reality inside is that everything is falling apart and no one knows how they're going to afford the increasing price of food/housing/utilities. Couple this with everyone also feeling a dark uncertainty about the future and suddenly taking any risk at all seems too great.

Until something *really* breaks in a serious way, there's not enough perceived group impact to impart enough cohesion to form a resistant group. Everyone is too busy translating the failures of the system as ones that they have to prepare for and defend against personally because that is what they've had to do all their lives to survive: all problems are individual problems right now -- they're not perceived as issues experienced by a collective because they cannot be thanks to decades of conditioning.
