I'm curious as to why did you made this statement. Like do you think the US isn't already fully "controlled by money over masses"?
I legitimately don't understand what people think America is as a country. All I see everywhere I go in this country is an orgiastic celebration of material wealth and those who have it over all else.
We've been controlled by "money over masses" my entire existence. I seriously have zero understanding of what online leftists are even talking about when they talk about solidarity and community. I've lived in many different places here and I felt the same sense of individualism and capital above all else everywhere I've been.
I’m not saying money doesn’t control politics when Democrats hold office. I’m saying Democrats do more for the masses than Republicans, especially the Republicans that are coming next year. Trump and his cronies are very vocal about having already been sold to the highest bidder.
Oh, gotcha. Well, yeah I think I agree actually.
