    Okay, we all understand this.

    But what is your solution? We can all jerk each other off about how we know how fucked up everything is until the goddamn cows come home. But any nonsense like this that just says “you’re a fool” while…not offering the “fools” you’re calling out a road forward is self congratulatory, masturbatory nonsense.

      The solution has always been violence. The American government doesn’t fear its people. We’ve been taught to clown on the French. The French riot over the smallest shit but hey, guess what, that’s a good thing. We’re all dumb, fat, cowardly pieces of shit. Most people I know don’t have the balls to share their salary or call out their boss’s boss in bullshit, much less take to the streets and make any actual personal sacrifice.

      If the government knows its people actually call them out on their bullshit, it is incentivized to skip over the “revolution” part and just give the people what they want. But without education, the people aren’t a threat - to each other maybe, but not to the government.

        I like to make fun of the USA as a whole, but wow, that was condescending 😅 Doesn’t sound as if you have even an inkling of a viable solution and will only spout some idealistic renditions about ending capitalism, without an original thought behind the hand turning the broken record.

          Ok yeah let me give you the solution to your crumbling empire and unstoppable march to the right on a meme board. There may or may not have been around more than one times this year someone may or may not have had the right idea though. It is definitely voting blue 👍
