@Reinald@nrw.social People (on the right AND the left) need to understand how their governments actually work, come to terms with reality, and vote accordingly. Revolution isn't going to happen as much as some dream about it. Lasting change does not happen overnight as much as some wish. For the last 40+ years, the ultra rich have turned the masses into cultists using propaganda getting us to fight each other instead of them. The answer lies in figuring out how to get people out of cults.

@vees "FBI Headquarters, how may I direct your call?"

@nixCraft@mastodon.social but humans try to demand rights

@Infrogmation It's an instant back button for me.

@kottke Maybe farmers should stop voting for the conservatives who keep allowing companies to do whatever they want. Imagine not having to sue in the first place, only to get back "somewhere between 26% and 53% of overcharge damages".

@Natanox @kottke there is a phenomenon here where people vote against there own interests because they'd rather have nothing than risk a non white person from benefiting. This most definitely infects white farming communities, many who once benefited from slavery. Some call this the politics of resentment and it's literally killing us.

@davidgerard@circumstances.run I agree that a depressing to rival the Great Depression is coming, but the ultra rich are not going to suffer like they should.

@infobeautiful@vis.social a lot of broad brushes and stereotypes from the "both parties are the same" folks. I'm not surprised. I did enjoy that it got me all wrong, though!
