I would love to see it, but I’m mostly just gobsmacked by how much balls-out plutocratic fuckery we’re already accepting. Corporations snatching up all the houses, grocery stores jacking up prices with abandon, our sick joke of a medical system pricing us out of being alive, insurance companies charging more and covering nothing. People seem more upset about streaming services raising prices and shovelling ads into everything, but they’re still fucking paying for them. It’s insane the abuse that the public is willing to accept, provided that there’s someone worse off who we can look down on.
Look all I’m saying is, when shit like this happened to medieval Chinese peasants, millions of landholders died and they still had more free time than us
(Before a liberal points out the obvious, I am aware technology has advanced since the Qing dynasty)
The systems of control they have created are resilient.
When you hear the GOP talking about how privileged we are to have indoor plumbing and refrigerators you really start to understand where they think the bottom is.

“You have a cellphone, in a world where everyone is pretty much legally required to have one…”
Yeah at this point they might as well complain we poors don’t literally dress in rags and cough when we talk ala Middle Ages beggars
Bread and circuses
I never say this, but fucking preach
