Fuck away my man! Well said. Well not man, just..you know what I mean. Everyone should enjoy life in this country so long as it doesn't bother others. That's the whole thing expressed in "the pursuit of happiness". That's why we're all here, just trying to be as happy as we can be.
Oh, it's a different Dana White
Oooh ok, I was surprised and confused for a second.
I get his point and I agree with it, but I think it's worth pointing out that people can and often do care about multiple things at once
Sure, everyone hates oligarchs. But oligarchs are up there and out of reach, and they are strong enough to retaliate. Instead, you also got these minorities, they're right here in the punching distance and they even may not hit you back.
This is it, this is how the billionaires make Joes fight other Joes and not the rich. This is why we have the cultural war and not the class war.
Thank you, comrade. Brillantly put.
A united public could easily oust the oligarchs and put them where they belong (the guillotines). But that requires large-scale public co-operation and putting aside differences, something the American public is wholly incapable of. I don't think it would be that hard if that was required in Europe.
Even in Europe when things would get bad enough for the people to put aside their differences and kill the ruling class, the differences tend to re-assert themselves once the common enemy is gone. That's where things go south. Cutting heads off is like eating potato chips. You can't just stop once you've started. Eventually you're pulling crumbs out of the bottom of the bag.
If it gets bad enough for the American people to unite to kill the oppressors, the oppressors will definitely have a bad time, but you better be ready for one hell of a rough ride after.
Thank you. So many people lately that think there's some magic "fix everything" button hidden in the neck of whatever top asshole is in power.
Doesn't take too deep a look at revolutions the world over to see that isn't the case.
Don't get me wrong, I think we're at the point where it may be the only way out. It's just nothing to look forward to, and suggesting Europe "does it better" isn't comforting.
We do have oligarchs in Europe, they're just not celebrities like their American counterparts. And very few of them are the actual billionaires.
That being said, they seem to keep low profile, maybe they really did learn the hard lesson from the European history.
A real general strike could work
*would definitely
There, much better :)
Only until the technology exists to replace workers with AI and physical robots.
Not that it really matters but replacing humans with machines has been done for all of the industrialized age on some level or another.
Therefore one doesnt need to worry about that. We rather need to take back the products of our labour. And later, we must demand equal distribution of wealth if work ever became obsolete, which isnt gonna happen imo.
This supports my hypothesis that people are mostly emotional. They're angry and scared so they lash out. They're not thinking in a calm detached manner.
Somehow we need to direct all the negative emotions towards the people who actually deserve it
In fact, not people actually deserve it. We live in a perverted system that needs inequality. We need to direct our power against said system.
It has been done successfully countless times in history. Just start reading non capitalist sources and be prepared to cry a lot.
If we all do it, there will be no capitalist states left to destroy better solutions.
France used to use pitchforks and guillotine for that.
It's mainly an issue in the US. And Americans are not taught how to handle emotions or think critically.
What is exactly an American issue? Because all the issues here are not exclusive to the US, they're pervasive all over Europe, and as far as I know (second hand), the rest of the world as well.
Post-national wealth is the thing they're distracting us from. They're more powerful than countries. They've basically bought the worlds superpowers. The axis of power is not nations anymore but collectives of oligarchs. As it stands it's apparently the Russia, China, and America regions with billionaires toying the world like a board game.
