  • Alright mate, then everyone's lives are improving, but people are too stupid and brainwashed to see it. You're there to scold them the right way. Good luck with that.

    • Alright mate, the everyone’s lives is improving, but people are too stupid and brainwashed to see it.

      Most people's lives are materially improving.

      That's not enough.

      Those two things are not mutually exclusive. The recognition that we're getting more scraps than we were before is not justification for only receiving scraps - we deserve more than scraps

      We are better poised now to see the inequalities and oppression which has long-been-present in society - arguably always been present. We have the tools of communication and education to observe it clearly, and we have the tools to fight it.

      People are stupid and brainwashed, but not in feeling dissatisfied with the current state of affairs. Typically, the stupidity and brainwashing comes in play when asking them what is causing their dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs.

      You’re there to scold them the right way.

      Man, I'm asking that people vote in addition to direct action. It's not a big ask. I promise.
