  • I want the owners to feel uncomfortable.

    Im all for this.

    Put Luigi everywhere.

    Even they look out their limo windows at the plebs walking by.

    Let them see Luigi, let them see DENY DEFEND DEPOSE

    Make the owner's guard gated world feel like a gilded cage.

    Make them feel explicitly unwelcome on every sidewalk they too have to walk down to get to the resturaunt/show/etc they want to go to. Everywhere their exploited congregate.

    They destroyed the Commons, send the message they can get the fuck out of them.

    You might think it won't matter, but these are the types that lose their fucking minds being denied anything.

  • The allies murdered a lot of Nazis.

    Whats the bfd?

    War is mass murder, we just feel uncomfortable saying that so we're bullshitted into saying "it's not murder... It's war!" War being that thing where old men send young men to murder one another to either increase or retain their power.

    Historically, murder solves shit, sorry. If the long arm of history truly does bend towards justice, thank murder, because the times passivism effected significant change are few and far between historically speaking. Sometimes the powerful goes too far in their decadence, they have, they limit the peasant's non-violent options, they have, and the alternative to violence is subjecting your kids and their kids to the very same cruelty.

    Sometimes enough is enough. Peasants were murdered yesterday, are today, will be tomorrow in the name of profit.

    It being sanctioned by our captured state doesn't make it not murder. Moreover it's not just murder, it's a one sided, ongoing slaughter for profit.

    Luigi's single murder merely put a new spotlight on what some of us already knew for the rest. May all of us be judged by how we react to that spotlight. The ones calling it wrong and evil end of story responding "turn off that spotlight so we can go back to pretending our society isn't fucked right now."

  • Our economy was most fair when Unions had some power. From the 50s to the 70s, there was a corrupt equilibrium when Conservatives were bribed by business and liberals were bribed by unions, until they were convinced to take the larger corporate bribe checks and joined the owner movement to undermine unions. Today's neoliberals. That is when, at least on economic policy, we effectively lost our vote. Then we lost our protest with designated protest zones out of the eyelines and profit operations of those being protested, which is effectively masturbation.

    I think it's inevitable when you don't inflict close to 100% enforced taxation above ludicrous levels of wealth accumulation. Because wealth at a certain level beyond material desires becomes power. Society warping levels of power, power to warp public opinion through media and captured education, power to neuter your own regulators through bribed politicians passing legislation written by the owners themselves(see ALEC), and no one should have such unelected power.

    No one.

    Part of the reason we know it's gotten this bad, closer to a return to the 1920s with child labor on the rise, is because there were some less unfair decades, and it's no surprise those decades came in the wake of the owner class created great depression.

    Now people watch wealthy people like the Kardashians as role models, when they should spit onto the street in disgust when such people walk by. Greed hurts people. Greed is a blight, a personal failing we've been propagandized to nurture.

    If you can't be happy only making enough for 2 big houses and 1 regular yacht and to indulge your hobbies for the century give or take you'll be alive, you're broken inside, and need mental healthcare, not enablers for your God complex.

  • When you take away people's reason to live, their time, their hobbies, their ability to raise a family, their loved ones, you make those people very desperate...

    ...you might not be glad that you did.

  • When all of your reasonable material desires are met (other people live here too), and your family's material future secure, if you still need, demand and pursue mooaaaar, you have a disease.

    A disease our toxic culture nurtures. A socially destructive disease.

  • Imho, as painful as it is, avoiding an economic civil war at this point does more harm than good over time. It kicks the can down the road until their side exclusively can use humanoid robots to fight their battles for them, and that just means get in line and die until collapse.

    The alternative is even darker, our non-wealthy children being judged by AI as to whether the potential profit/loss of healing them is greater or less than their remaining projected exploitation value to the owners.

    And that's just in Healthcare. Our entire economy has become this sociopathic.

    This is silent slaughter. No one should confuse quiet with peace. We haven't had peace for a long time.

    They don't care if only the top 5% is free on the backs of the 95%, they don't see the bottom 95% as human at all. I don't think society should continue under that bargain. It isn't worth it. No one is free until everyone is.

  • Psychologist here:

    You're stuck on number 4 mate.

    It was legal to force African Americans to give up their seats to whites on the bus, until a lot of highly moral activity that was illegal at the time changed that.

    Jim Crow would likely still be in full force today had it not been for adult levels of moral outrage, with accompanying illegal demonstration, that superceded immoral laws.

    It's a tragic mistake to conflate legality with morality.

  • Yeah that is strange, the affluent usually have gold plated plans that aren't subject to the same murderous tyranny most's base level and/or employer provided garbage is. I thought those are the plans they point to as the US having the "best Healthcare in the world..." for the right people, god's chosen affluenza sociopaths.

    I always saw those plans as the "In the little self-protecting country club" plans provided for the owners fellow owners in actual good faith since they're seen as bona fide human beings and not exploitation livestock.

    As with anything in the owner's completely seperate, segregated world, from vacation spots to Healthcare, the only gate they need to keep is prohibitive expense.

  • Much obliged, and thank you!

    Edit-I agree with his overarching point:

    An active War is being waged upon the non-wealthy masses by the owners, a war sanctioned by our own government that will not intervene, whether the non-wealthy masses peacefully line up as is expected of them to get executed like good lil boys and girls in the name of private profit or not.

  • I've always said crypto isn't completely useless, it should just be what it was always meant to be and no more:

    A currency to buy drugs anonymously on the darknet.

    Could have just stopped at OG bitcoin for that. All the rest is idiocy. It's good for that niche, and nothing else.
