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
Blair Mountain is a good place to start.
