You are not alone. It seems like the UK is eager to join you
Fundamentally the problem is that the US is just too rich. That creates incentives, like:
- A strong incentive to use media to control the abundance of resources for personal benefit
- Valuable advertising, leading to corporate propaganda that exploits our emotions, and hyperemotional, fluffy news coverage designed to grab our attention rather than inform
- A near-monopoly on extremely wealthy people, which leads those people to spend directly on promoting pro-stratification candidates
This creates a catch-22. To fix the media and government, we need to spread out wealth to dilute financial power. But to do that would require policy changes that require fixing the media and government.
Friends?
Our sickness spreads.
White supremacy has been in canada and australia for just as long.
😭
Canada and australia are also genocidal right-wing dystopias.
Gotta be uber privileged to celebrate this anywhere.
9/11 sends their regards.
