Why are Americans angry?
US Politics in a nutshell
Note- This is an article that I wrote and published on my blog before Joe Biden dropped out of the Presidential Race. A lot has changed since then but this represented an emotion at a certain point in time.
This is a very short article based on popular social media discourses I encounter every day. I am not going to make a judgement on them but just going to enlist them. These are multiple perspectives handpicked and aggregated.
Americans are angry because-
- 1.1 million Americans died during COVID-19 which is much higher than the number of deaths during World War II.
- The exit of the USA from Afghanistan was chaotic and many were shocked by the lack of proper execution on the ground which led to the fall of Kabul in the hands of the Taliban which was a massive costly affair for the American taxpayer.
- On January 6th Insurrection and Aftermath.
- The high inflation in the country has pushed the cost of living.
- High Gas Prices Aftermath Russia-Ukraine War.
- Roe vs Wade was overturned.
- They hate guns and gun violence but no one is doing anything on that. \
- Politicians take money from gun lobby only do nothing.
