You act like we’re just here and participating and there isn’t a cohort of cartoonishly evil wealthy people that control all our resources and have been propagandizing and militarizing the police for the last fifty years. I mean I’m wirh you on the taking action part. We should be rioting by now and pulling politicians from their homes and forcing them to sign reforms at gunpoint. Getting there is another thing. Even with coordinated groups no one wants to say, burn a data center, or stand up to ICE with their own guns, because everyone one of us has to deal with what you mention above, everything is tied to our jobs, which the wealthy cohort also controls. Now, with that all laid out, the logical course of action would be to take back our fuckong lives anyway if we’re oppressed either way. Most don’t seem to see it that way and want to ‘vote’ away the problems somehow. You can’t vote away absolute power.
I am not a U.S. citizen. Like any other person in the world, I can only observe that the US is committing war crimes and trampling on international law. So am I supposed to naively assume that all Americans are monsters? To put it another way: If that’s not the case, why does your country act this way? Aren’t you a democracy in which the will of the people is represented by the government?
I am well aware that this is not the case, but the responsibility for this lies just as much with US citizens as the responsibility for the war crimes your country is committing.
These questions dont seem in earnest. Generalizing entire populations in any society is never going to bode well. Life is not divided into binaries and nice boxes. No one in the US or anywhere 100% agrees with another on everything. So I ask you, what do you do? How do we go from where we are now to the People’s Revolution? If you ask me, you don’t. Historically it has never happened. Sri Lanka was different. So in my opinion the only thing you can do is what you can do. There is no big revolution coming.
