"Why don't Americans protest more" is a funny question because Americans have nothing and no one to rally around, no coherent ideology beyond a vague sense of patriotic duty, a lot of them are ignorant by design, many more are exhausted by design, protesters are universally portrayed as violent terrorists, they get no political support or protection (unless they're Nazis) and they get brutalized by cops with military gear whenever they do show up in numbers, no matter how peaceful.
