With the ubiquity of inflation and shrinkflation, why aren't there more boycotts? When will people say enough is enough?

I learned what cowards Americand are when it was admitted that the Iraq War was started on lies and everyone just shrugged and went about their day.

Why are they cowards? Why would they care if it doesn't affect their daily lives? Obviously some people care, but the majority would indeed just shrug and go back to making ends meet.

This comes down to the good old "keep the masses fed". People are being given just the right amount of wealth. Not enough to be free and not too little to revolt.

I like that you asked a question and then answered it.

it's still possible there were weapons of mass destruction. I mean just about as likely as it seemed back then. very very slim.
