i mean every person left of center has been saying that for decades but conservatives kept acting like the wealthy were gods and we had to acquiesce to their every will
I mean… history has shown time and time again that the wealthy do just fine under fascism. Fascism really is just what happens when capitalism begins to decline and in order to distract from wealth disparities you focus on cultural issues.
Pinochet’s Chile is great example where the “Miracle of Chile” was actually only a miracle for a very small group of individuals who owned most of the nation’s wealth while terrorizing everyone else under a brutal dictatorship.
Trump is giving them a financial version of a swirly by threatening to flush their government contracts and subsidies away while breaking up or closing down their mega corporations…
They love spreading it wide & get off on the fact they can pay for what the rest of us cannot, & that is absolving themselves from daddy’s wrath. So instead, they get daddy’s love & look at us with a shit eating grin mouthing na na nuh boo boo as daddy gets the belt to whip our butts.
This is especially true of the likes of EM who have relied on the distribution of US govt $$$$$$ to be the backbone of their businesses they no longer have to compete in market because the government made them the winner & they will do anything not to lose that support or be exempt from dt tariffs
poor and middle class also greedy, but not bending the knee to donald. the less material things we have, the less material things we have to lose? rest in voice, voice = authentic human connection.
What is the point of having FU money of you do not tell a creep like DJT to F himself? These guys amassed ungodly fortunes only to figuratively get stuffed in lockers by a bully like Trump.
It's unbelievable that they would go against us, we controlled the narrative for too long just to give it up. How can we take ownership of all the social media and news outlets? It's like we're losing our grip and that won't stand.
We could try violence and find a way to blame them for it.
These chumps at Meta don’t have lawyers that know how to grind whatever Trump tries to do to them to a halt? They don’t know how to jam up the court system?
If we are going to have billionaires, then why can’t we have the kind that live to fight the federal government?
I am no communist. Marx was blinkered and foolish as to human appetites and capabilities. But boy, as I age, his class war interpretation of history strikes me as maybe more salient than I realized.
It's like the richer they get the more profoundly afraid they are of not being rich - so they do anything at all to protect that, damn the consequences.
Remember when Amazon was debating a strike because they weren't making enough money, and bezos said they couldn't pay them and instead flew a giant robotic dick into the moon?

I know they’re scared… just can’t figure what of?
I guess when you get down to your last billion you have to start eating more beans.
They're looked at in good light in society because of greed.
Not the meat/pork factories and farms of red states

We deserve better.
