unprotesting
Offering no objection
Unprotesting describes someone who accepts something without objection or complaint.
An unprotesting person submits quietly, offering no resistance: She went along with the plan, unprotesting.
The word often implies passive acceptance of something unfavorable—an unprotesting victim, an unprotesting crowd led away by authorities.
