when i say "we" i don't mean america. i mean the poor, the lower classes, i mean people who know the truth. people who understand hierarchies aren't necessary to society, that poverty is enforced, and that all people can be, and deserve to be free. sorry for any disclarity. this is not just about the united states. this is about a global system of terror that's about to get a lot scarier after a summer of intensifying authoritarianism
I'm saying that sometimes it's not fixable. We've been at this for about 200 000 years, almost nothing has been long term solved yet.
Besides, your perspective is iffy. From what you're saying in the reply, you've ignored the suffering of the rest of the world until it affected you personally, and now you claim to speak for everyone affected? Seems like quite a douchebag thing to do.
The world will be different, this will probably not be what ends us all. We will more probably survive as a species only to put ourselves in a bind with even higher stakes. Our base social instincts are wired this way as long as there's resource scarcity or inequality.
you're projecting mate. I've been saying we live in a global system of torture for 13 years and protesting genocide since 2008. across the globe there are stories of societies who figured this shit out before white supremecy arrived on their shores and wrecked everything. i'm sorry, but no. this resource scarcity and inequality are constructed by the holders of power. it's planned and on purpose to keep us from ever seeing that the rich keep us poor so we'll stay angry at each other and let them stay in power. i fundamentally disagree with you about what all of human history tells us, and what the natural order is. i honestly ask you this, if the natural order is struggle between groups of people, why does it require so much energy and effort on the part of the part of the people in power to keep it going?
Yeah, we seem to misunderstand each other at every turn, it may be that we have too little common ground for this to be a productive exchange.
Let's chalk it up to cultural differences and see if we can meet in a forum more conducive to nuance and building understanding.
