Now we know why all these oligarchs are building fortresses

I been watching a lot of Docs lately on just how the Nazis were able to take over Germany in the 30s. It is a striking parallel to today. It's like they found the playbook and are running pretty much the same exact plays Hitler and his circle of evil ran. But this time the stakes may be even higher. And there will be no one to come in to save America, the world will shrug their shoulders and say good riddance. Plus I feel the fighting spirit the ppl had back then is long gone. As long as we got "Bread and circus" the ppl will be pacified. History will be very un kind to what happened to America.

The fact that everyone has unlimited entertainment available in a tiny device that they can hold in their hand and keep in their pocket ensures that they will do nothing.

Humans are disappointing.

If the only way you think change can happen in a democratic society is that people start copycat killing CEO's then that is wrong.

It's not about wrong or right at this point imo, it's, what will cause these politicians that are bought and paid for by big corps to listen to the people?

Voting? No

Appealing to their sense of love for their common man? No

Government is willing to do shyt that kills ppl every day

"It's wrong!" don't cut like you think it does

 

[Sleepy Floyd]

in a country where mass murderers exist, don't under estimate what people are willing to do if they can't get the most basic shyt lol. Humans are violent, comfort is what keeps many from acting out.

Humans are passive. People's fight-or-flight response leans heavily towards flight. Fear of getting physically hurt is what keeps many from acting out.

Mass murderers exist in pretty much every country, and in other countries they are more likely to get away with it

 

[Sleepy Floyd]

Are you really suggesting that people that go into schools and slaughter children are on the same "level" as a man that killed a CEO of a reprehensible corporation?

Edit: i get what you are saying but still it is not a good short or long term hope.

Murder is murder. It's wrong either way. But notice how a demented cac commits murder of that CEO and he gets treated like he's the second coming of Jesus.

Not sure if serious.

Like I said in a different post - do you think the standard democratic rules and norms are still in force?

I no longer have faith in those institutions.

This current regime isn't business as usual.

The French Revolution 2.0

French Revolution 3.0

 

[Gritsngravy]

it can definitely happen but it’s going to happen in unforeseen ways

There ain’t necessarily going to be some concentrated revolution committed by one group, society is just going to fall apart and everything is in chaos , and this can happen anywhere in the world

Thats what folks should be worried about, making sure the majority actually still committed to being law abiding citizens, they better hope people still have the will to want to go to work everyday, if these billionaires were smart they would be doing shyt to make sure the citizens straight

And you know how I know it’s possible cause of all the shyt that happened during Covid, there ain’t enough police or military to stop anything

Tell me, what concrete and substantial piece of legislation or policy that has improved the economic situation of the 99 percent come from all of the marches?

Well, people like you will be collateral damage and you WON'T be missed

Naw man, yeah murder was wrong but people were cheering because they are tired of being squeezed by profit hungry CEOs...It's reach the point were companies are too profit hungry and do not care about how they affect people lives. This was a way for people to let out their frustration.

And if American society falls apart, that means the world society fell apart

no fortress here, but I literally am picking up a new pistol this evening I already paid for

Voting is the way, it is just that we have a lot of people that do not vote and the out of the ones that do a large majority of those barely vote, dont vote in primaries where you select the party rep for the final election and/or vote for stupid reasons.

All the talk about corporations buying politicians would not matter if the people stop voting for shyt. Why did people keep voting for Feinstein even though she was a corpse for a long time? The same for McConnell. Why do the people that actually vote keep voting in Pelosi when she is clearly not for the people? The ones that keep voting in the shyt on the Republican side? Or the people that dont vote at all yet complain about politicians?

If you are getting elected term after term and not doing what most people would be helped by, why would you change? This has always been a problem of the electorate, not of the politicians. If you vote for trash or do not vote at all, do not be angry with the results.
