Yeah, like Punching down, when you feel oppressed, you find a target to feel like you are better than, to aim your hatred. Unhappy people who feel trapped, under capitalism, finding a way to see the grass is greener on their side of the fence. Shit way to cope, and understanding it doesn't mean it's in any way excusable, only that understanding why, is the first step, if we want to question and turn these people back to the light.
I think you're exactly right and I think it's by purposeful design all that hate riling thats going on, to try to distract people so they don't aim thier hate where you do, because if we all do that, the system changes and the small group of people holding all the money, have to give it back so the rest of us can have basic needs. I think it's them generating the hate, so people don't notice the entire problem is them. I could never hurt someone, really, but if I got superpowers, I'd take that trauma on, I know where I'd go first. And it would be bloody. I might even say something like your money or your life, and go all robin hood. But I don't see superpowers really happening, for me. It's a nice thought, being able to have our freedom and free everyone else under the purposeful oppression that is capitalism and that capitalism has to generate to survive.
So what you're saying is that low level workers are socialised to feel like lesser (even though the pandemic really proved who actually matters in the scheme of the whole job system) and also feel trapped by the design of the employment system, under capitalism and angrily try to take some ground back by having just one nice thing, bought with the feeling of pride, but are actually accidentally buying into the system that oppresses them.
A lot of the stuff this guy is posting is propaganda supporting and glorifying Israel. Click bait headlines and clear demonising language used when referring to hamas. Just noticing the content, not making statements, myself.
That's a hilarious thought. The good ol scientists at Samsung, we could just use gravity and design the front to lift up a little, or we could add ridiculously machinery with the power to remove a limb. But they all agree gravity doesn't tick the box of new technology, therefore they have to go with the latter option.
How it went is Australia (trust me, we had shitloads of guns, buddy) was, people who wanted to hand in the small selection of banned guns, did, the people who didn't, didn't. Then regularly the cops do an amnesty day, where you can hand in any illegal guns, no questions asked. If they change their minds. People still own guns. You don't ban them all, just the unnecessary ones, and you regulate who can buy them, kinda like getting a really easy drivers licence.
I live in Australia, we have gun bans. We still have guns. It's not even really hard to get them. There's shops. It's just more like getting a really easy drivers licence. It's not about banning them. It's more about screening the people who want to buy them, and regulating their use.
The women of Iceland went on strike in 1975, they stopped doing literally everything, walked out of the home, left the kids, to demonstrate how much the system would crumble without them, how important they are to everything being able to function, and ask for equal pay. They flipped everything overnight.
The current system is all the workers do all the work, and the profits from that work go almost entirely to some douvhe who won birth lotto. The system is already rigged. Unrigging the system would look like walking off the job, but globally. It's going to happen. Society is squeezed too tightly, there's going to be havoc.
I was being facetious, buddy.
