    Honestly, I would have someone on staff to respond to every comment/lie about no one coming to help them with a reminder that it’s their own representatives that are keeping them in this state. Their representatives would rather make ai pictures depicting a sad child, than do something for an actual child.

    This is so fucking infuriating. People’s lives are being ruined so the dems can have a “loss.” What the actual fuck is wrong with the people we give power to.

      The gangsters figured out you can just use capitalism instead of law-breaking to make obscene amounts of money.

        I don’t think there exists a single capitalist that made an obscene amount of money without breaking laws

      Change that to “why the fuck do we have to keep picking others to have power over our own lives?” and you might start getting somewhere.

      Power corrupts.

      Capitalism and its electoral politics (the extra steps it has taken from feudalism, that is nothing more than theatre to appease the masses) has always existed to concentrate, and then maintain, power in the hands of a few. Once someone has such power they will never give it up willingly.

      As long as there is hierarchy, there will be inequality. Which is why our system enforces hierarchy so avidly.
