MODERATORS
99% of the country votes capitalist every two years, and then everyone clutches their pearls when capitalist things happen. Guys, this is the world you wanted. The ruling parties are not hiding who they are from you.
Dunno bout "not hiding" I just read 6 Bloomberg articles that said everything's going great and it must be my gosh darn feelings actin up again
Dems: We Are Capitalists
I mean, capitalism is going pretty great for the Bloombergs of the world.
Jesus Christ. Then the next video is how the Statue of Liberty and ?Abraham Lincoln?! Are crying over a travel restriction?! Don't get me wrong what a stupid response from Trump to "answer" immigration but Christ it is so performative nonsense.
The world is literally the Matrix, except instead of being kept in a mind prison without seeing your captors, you're kept in an economic prison, and your captors rattle your cage every day with their massive cocks while they laugh at you.
There's some truth to that.
Well, 99% of the people who vote. The people who dissent do it by not voting.
Can't blame the people not voting when they can't afford to miss work to vote.
If you're a wage earner, you've watched the last two decades as both Democrats and Republicans have made it explicitly clear that they're comfortable with you being paid poverty wages.
