    I think it's wrong to write the George Floyd protests off like that, saying that everyone just kinda "went back to work". Rome wasn't built in a day and it didn't fall in a day either.

    The people lashed out and while the system still stands, there are now more cracks in its foundation than before. Many people are disillusioned with the way things are and while there might be several more events of the public being enraged without immediate consequences, eventually there will be a straw to break the camel's back.
