The lines between corporate America, the American government, and organized crime are thin to non-existent.
It's sad... These protestors, and activists... It's naive in most cases. They aren't playing "the game", they are playing the part that the people playing "the game" want them to play.
The war isn't about to start... We have been in war. But no one fighting back is playing "the game". We are indoctrinated mostly to not play the "the game". So everything people do to fight is exactly what the "game" players taught them to do to remain submissive.
"The game" is the same thing from the streets, like the way gangs and drug dealer work etc.... hustling, mob life... to mainstream business, and politics... There is nothing different. But they indoctrinate the common American to not participate.
In some ways some people "fight" to remain submissive and escape from a reality they are afraid of or actually never even saw.
We have been raped as humanity. We have been on the losing side of a long psychological war. We pay the enemy to castrate our humanity. We made this from our naiveness. From our fear of reality that was marketed to us to buy into their power structure instead of understanding raw reality and learning how to ride that wave, how to tame that dragon, we chose the false security that made a slave master.
We paid for this and we promoted this... The same people fighting it now, created it. The divided sides are purposely made. The divided sides are one in the same. The divided sides need to unite, because they have a common enemy.

What are you on about? It didn't use to be this way and history takes many turns. This is a fight and we don't need defeatist attitudes like yours because it's "a game". That's how you dig your head in the sand and throw away the towel because you're too comfortable to get up. Fuck that noise, the people rise.
There a glimmers of hope. I think the number of people who see how Democrats contributed to where we are now are starting to outnumber those that don't. It's starting to look like we might have an honest to God progressive as mayor of New York, and the establishment has got to hate that.
It's still a real fight in front of us, but we are seeing the cracks start to form. What we really need now is a presidential candidate. Pritzker is the best I've seen so far, but I'd really like to do better.
Y'all need an honest to God revolution. At the very least Trump and his ilk need to be deposed and tried for treason, proportional representation implemented and all powers granted to law enforcement after 9/11 revoked. Don't count on the day after government to do these things.
working on it boss
We need the get there yes, but not all on "the day after". This is also the reason I suggested Pritzker as the best so far. He doesn't seem to be shying away from the needed rhetoric. My biggest concerns are that he is just being opportunistic, and that he is a billionaire. Then again, FDR was super wealthy too, and whomever it is needs to be at least a little psychotic - which at least suggests a billionaire.
