You actually made me try to think about instances of Americans standing up to government…
I mean other than the revolution against England… Who were a God damn ocean away… I don’t think Americans have ever really stood up to tyranny?
Maybe the civil rights movement? Even that half of them were on the side of racists lol… I don’t know… I feel like if you talk about standing up to government I think more of the French than Americans
Seems like another propaganda thing to pacify people into inaction like saying you don’t need to work out you are ripped to a fatass eating chips on the couch.
Maybe that’s why American politicans love perpetuation the myth

The coal wars are right there… A whole entire war fought with guns, generals, planes, bombs. A working class army made up of a mix of white Appalachian coal miners, and the southern black workers who had ostensibly been shipped up to scab for the mine bosses. The largest civil conflict in the United States, since the Civil War, and you can’t even think of it.
This is the dumbest, most braindead take I’ve ever seen. Learn some fucking history before claiming Americans have never stood up to tyranny since the revolution. Not saying we don’t have problems currently, but holy shit.

Blair Mountain is a good place to start.
