I mean, where else would you hear about it? Are you expecting random strangers on the street to just angrily scream at you about increasing energy prices and inflation?

Imho one of the biggest giveaways was when German supermarkets started mentioning "inflation" in their discount prospects, first saw that like 2 months ago.

Yeah, that's something people sometimes do in the form of protests. But I think almost everyone realizes that there's no easy way out this time.

there were huge protests against vaccines and mask mandates not too long ago (not making a moral judgment here, just saying people are definitely not afraid to voice their opinions loudly in public on some issues)
