usually... people oppose something, then a leadership is formed to help them and organize them. Leaderships serve the people and come from the people. here it is the opposite, if the leadership does not complain, the people are silent, if the leadership complains about...anything, regardless of how ridiculous it is sometimes, you see people all of a sudden getting involved.
it just seems like the Lebanese do not have their own independent opinions. we just wait for the leaders to speak, mafi mouzaharat betsir unless the opposition officialy calls for one, otherwise, no matter how bad things go, the people are silent.

high immigration is a sign that Lebanese have given up hope for their country to improve, they no longer want to fight in it and they wish to search for their own lives abroad. the independent minds are gone and what is left are the people who take bribes and the people who just follow whenever a leader speaks.

PS: I'm not better I am not going to protest anymore. this country is a living proof of the saying "only fools are heroes" kel el mouzaharat wel edrabet for what? Mark Hwayek took a bullet in his back and is now paralyzed so he can now witness the opposition being silent and the taxes being higher?

there was cheating in the election I agree, but cheating does not tip scales from 0% votes to 48%, we have to simply accept that a big big chunk of our people are retarded, they are happy in these conditions, and we cannot force improvement against their will.
