I don’t know about the Vietnam war protests, but the Civil Rights Movement was a lot more militant than do-nothing liberals would want you to believe. Look up the Black Panthers and people like Malcolm X, and even the peaceful side included real civil disobedience and obstruction. There’s no equivalence between what Americans are doing now and what MLK and crew did.
The Black Panthers weren’t even formed until the greatest victories of the Civil Rights Movement had already been won, and for all of Malcolm X’s rhetoric before leaving the Nation of Islam, the threat of violence from Black Nationalists was not a core factor to the victories of the Civil Rights Movement.
MLK Jr. spent nearly a decade and a half building organizations and connections for nationwide resistance.

Wrong. Just look at your own history…
To only quote the ones off the top of my head. I’d expect an American to remember these better than me.

American education in a nutshell lol (which is part of the systemic problem, and by design)
Yep. Lack of education and pacifying Americans by making them believe that stuff like protests and unions are against their interests. Sad.
