Propaganda has improved. People don't have communities. It's worse. People have to be more clever than before to compensate.
Who’s the rest of us? As far as I can tell, there isn’t anybody actually doing shit. Well, maybe one or two people. And a misguided and toothless protest isn’t going to achieve anything, no matter how many people show up. I hope you find your rest of us before it’s too late.
The top 10% with an absolute absurd amount of the wealth are the ones that don't care. Their miney, therefore their lifestyle seems safe.
The poorest idiots care deeply but think Trump is on their side and will come down to sweep them up right before it gets really miserable cause he needs to break standards of living for all the rich for them to rise up.
What will get people to finally pivot is unknowable. It will be when there is nothing left to lose, probably. If that ever happens without help from the outside, I dunno. It's not like Germans could Stop Germany from the inside or Japan it's fascism, or any other group.
But I think it's wrong to say the average American doesn't care. The over represented, as always, dont care, which includes out government. The average American agrees deeply we just don't have much power and all disagree on the solution.
Yeah, pretty depressing huh?
Hopefully effort becomes cool again.
