Owning class.

How much in your bank account isn't the point — it is how that money got there. It just so happens that practically nobody ever became a billionaire without the use of exploitation.

So not just billionaires but any who make their income through exploiting their private ownership over the tools, land, and resources which make production possible that, under the capitalist system, entitles those "owners" to the excess value of labor, in the form of profits, that are generated by the working class – individuals who must sell their labor to these owners for a wage – under their employment.

People don't want to admit that it isn't the Dems versus Reps; it is the working class people versus the oligarchic American government.

Always has been.

Oh true true. I forgot about the square-cube law.

Rich have always had control over the government. They didn't break anything. They shored up the defenses of their systemic power after a brief period of working class revolt during the early-to-mid 90s that forced them to make concessions in favor of workers.

Haven't watched it but will add it to the list

Bro caught me slippin'

Should probably think a little deeper as to why the ICE agent is being depicted in similar fashion to a LEO in a political cartoon.

Don't take my word for it but I think it might be trying to tell us something.

This is why hierarchical power structures will always be doomed to fail. All it takes is one person of ill intent to obtain a seat of power to begin entrenching themselves into that position of power by abusing their control over how the rules as written are interpreted.

This is why power must come from the bottom up so that, when this inevitably happens, the people have the confidence in their power to remove the perpetrator from office and have them replaced.

Yea. All the real collegiate degrees and the bullshit degree.

Yes, there is no merit in understanding the nonsensical logic of religious dogma. Their logic is all the same circular bullshit of "God says so, cause it's in the book, that I know is true, cause God said so in the book" when boiled down anyway.

Instead, we should be understanding human psychology and what drives people to believe in the superstitious and trap themselves in fallacious logic while dismantling the current institutions that abuse this flaw of human psych for their own selfish ends.

The reason they can use it to oppress people is because people give it legitimacy and treat it as a valid belief instead of the superstitious nonsense that it is.

There is a key for — on my phone. Just hold down the - key and it pops up as an option. I use it all the time.
