The beatings will continue until morale improves.
We’ve tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas
The sad reality is that the lower the peasants are, the higher the owners feel, and humanity subsists in service to our about 3k billionaires and 28k 100-million-plus-onairs fee-fees, exclusively.
A tragic aspect of human nature, and this is part of psychology, is that the basis of human happiness is usually derived from comparison to others.
If Warren, Elon, Rupert, Jeff, etc could snap their fingers and give everyone a magically sustainable Earth where everyone gets whatever they want or need similar to them, they wouldn’t, the being so far above the peasants is the point.
Maybe we could just start some civil unrest in the top 20? Level the playing field.
/S for anyone that needs it. Feels like there’s a lot of you lately.
We were ever even there? Damn, rest of the world must be pretty unhappy
It was artificially inflated for decades until peasant’s situation declined to the point that almost no one was dumb enough to swallow the whole, hard pushed “American Exceptionalism” horseshit anymore.
You would have to suffer a head injury to be proud of this cesspool of inequality and racism, built on foundations of genocide and slavery, whose modern core values can be summed up in 2 words: greed and schadenfreude.
Even the one thing everyone points to about how noble they proclaim we are, World War 2, wasn’t noble at all. We had to be catastrophically attacked to finally be willing to do the right thing. That isn’t noble, that’s just what you do when under threat, fight back. Noble would have been fighting the Nazis before the Japanese (thankfully) made the greatest strategic military blunder of the 20th century.
That is… ironically, a very American centric view for someone who is so pessemsic about America.
Yeah, almost everywhere else has to endure US-Imperialism
“For the first time” …are…are you sure?
