"We" is not just you and me and a million other people. You may disagree, but I think there's a reason for calling the silent majority, silent. Since January 6th, the outrage has decreased and there clearly is not an overt nor overwhelming public demand for justice. People should be outraged and alarmed for how the Republican Party has betrayed this country in their willingness to stop at nothing to establish authoritarianism in the U.S. I fear most people have lost faith in government and the justice system.

I also think that Biden's low poll numbers and why Democrats aren't favored in the midterms is because they have not lead the charge against the traitorous Republicans. The propaganda wars are being won by the Republicans who lie with impunity. i.e. Democrats never have learned to give as good as you get. Taking the high road means getting undercut at every turn. Biden is the wrong man for the job in these times - the country needs a fighter who believes their number one priority is preserving majority rule in a democratically formed government. A radical minority is oppressing and suppressing the majority. How is that possible in a country that holds itself out as the best democratically formed government.

Finally, I think most people in the world who are paying attention to what is happening in the U.S. are completely baffled at our timidity in pushing back against a seditious and corrosive anti-democratic party. I've noticed a difference in coverage about politics in the US between the Washington Post and the Guardian. HCR recently had one of her letters published in the Guardian and the comment section was illuminating.

I hope I answered your question.
