I.m.o. US media has watered down revolution and resistance to injustice into purely a matter of aesthetics. Our movies, shows, and books constantly recast events to gut the actual historical context. Its why MAGA people can imagine themselves as a sort of resistance, because they are so used to identifying the aesthetics and not the substance of political movements.
