The US is unlike every other developing or even developed nation that has gone through revolution for two huge reasons:
It’s not one big country, it’s 50 smaller countries, each with its own power and systems and elections. If you’re going to collapse a system you have to do it 50 goddamn times perfectly.
Nobody here is even remotely close to an actual “revolution” on either side of the political spectrum. Despite the huge marches and protests and violence the world sees out of the USA right now, the vast majority of the hundreds of millions of people here are mostly tuned out. The economic machine is grinding away harder than ever, and powered by a vast segment of the population who get all their news from 30-minutes of facebook memes on a Sunday night while getting ready for bed.
