it wasn't Luigi, guy is a patsy, but even if it were he still would have done no wrong

The history of taxes is not even remotely what you think. www.taxnotes.com/tax-history-...

It’s not really the political parties that stand in our way, it’s the oligarchs who control them, but more, it’s our own lack of organization, initiative, and willingness to fight those oligarchs for control of them. They fight the class war. We simply don’t. And we haven’t since the 1960s.

This is the pure distilled essence of “law isn’t real” which means, you can say no, reject it, void it, by popular will. This is “jury nullification.” This is also how we can reject billionaire claims of ownership over everything: just collectively say “nope, not going along with that.”

I'm gonna keep reposting examples of people not taking shit because it's important for us to see that you can, simply, reject the shit. Say "Uh... no no no, we will not be tolerating that."

The truth is, the powers that be figured out that there’s no viable replacement for fossil fuels and it will run out and society will collapse soon and there’s nothing to do about it. Billions will die very shortly. So, they lie about it, while having their party on the deck of the titanic.

No seriously. The most fascist thing happening right now is the corrections “strike” (tantrum) happening in NYS.

I lm getting angrier by the minute by how people around me are viewing the Corrections protest. The Corrections people aren’t allowed to literally torture people anymore. This has led to some prisoners exercising their rights, and calling for murders to be investigated, etc.

What Elon Musk’s “DOGE” is doing is called “Fiscal Conservatism” which is the same shit the liberals like in their Dem politicians.

The message, but in a Boomer meme format

The world didn’t change, didn’t go off a cliff, just because a handful of billionaires. They have crazy amounts of personal power, but still not enough to move the needle on their own. That takes class power. The class that moved the needle are the ones who wanted lower property tax.

The majority of the Dem political class, and the majority of their voters are responsible for the derailment. Also, the entire GOP. The billionaires are part of this group. The people who aren’t responsible are the tiny minority.

That, and a substantial number of people who aren't really progressives went out of their way to make sure that there was no viable political vehicle for the left in formal politics...
