It’s even easier to find excuses to avoid even lifting a finger against the machine.
Also, the US has exported its awfulness to most of the world, so it’s not like I’m immune. I’m just mad that I don’t have the same power to change things that Americans do, but then all I hear back is fucking whining
Yeah we’re not going to act. We’re lazy, divided but most importantly afraid. Insult away though. Everyone assumes they’re a hero until heroic shit needs doing.
Sure, that’s fair enough. But what I don’t get is the defeatism. All the disdain, reject and call for action seems to come from outside, from the inside only memes, vague and cold “we need to organize” statements, and learned helplessness.
I don’t blame you to be clear. You have been the victims of the most sophisticated and cruel manipulation machine the world has ever seen. But just fucking throw something and take your country and lives back!! (for legal reasons this is a metaphor)
Because you didn’t grow up here. You have no idea what it’s like. Be grateful that you don’t have to experience capitalism taken to its logical extreme. Basically this is the most successful experiment ever run for inducing executive dysfunction on a personal level.
Are you forgetting that insurance companies routinely deny medical care to people even after they’ve paid? I mean if that doesn’t cause people to burn it down then what did you expect to happen here
