“The reason is racial demographics and obesity.”
Not only that, but our poorest people are the MOST likely to be obese! We have the fattest most entertained poor people in the history of the earth, it’s hard for me to imagine widespread sustained civil unrest while these conditions persist. The poorest people sure weren’t the fattest during the Civil War.
Also, the number of eligible voters that have chosen not to vote have outnumbered any single political party for 100+ years. If things were so bad, I would figure more would deign to vote about it before they take to the streets. The folks that care about politics tend to vastly overestimate the number of people who care about it like they do.

I have spent some time talking to people who do not vote, never heard any reason other than those people are convinced things are already past the point of their vote mattering. Most have felt that way for many, many years. Very jaded, does not mean they would sit out any sort of unrest.
