It is not about "how it looks".
It is very likely that their lives are much worse (or about to turn much worse). They are revolting because their lives are turning from being more like the US into being more like China.
PS. A thousand people protesting in NYC does not in any way count as a "revolt".
- matthewdgreen 7y agoThe precursor to any revolt is (even mild) civil unrest. The article is pointing out that we don't even have any signs of that. As you've pointed out, even the idea that things are about to turn much worse (rather than actual conditions today) can motivate civil unrest, but we still don't have it here in the US.
