how much of this do you expect in the U.S. if the new COVID strains outpace vaccine efforts, say the virus cases keep going down in February and then spike up higher than ever in March and then they put on more lockdowns?

Ultimately riots like this are just used as an excuse to clamp down on more rights and these types of people are often used by communists to get power, after which the communists dispose of them. Hopefully this time it's different.

I don't think so. Americans tend to be sheep. Even the most liberal small mom and pop shop owner who has lost their business due to lockdowns eagerly drinks the cool aid and abides. We are a spineless nation at the moment. All bark and no bite. It pains me to type this, but it's true.

Well, it would be up to Republicans. That's their cause.

They just "lost" their last riot - the attempt to overthrow the federal government.

Team Blue will continue focusing on burning down west coast cities because someone was misgendered at a post office or some other ish.

Hopefully. With luck, the sheep will arise and decide they are tired of being muzzled.

They aren't tired of being muzzled.

They simply prefer the muzzling they were under prior to 3/15/20.

That's the shame in all of this.
