I cant stand living in this fake-wannabe democracy. I feel so lonely, nobody shares my views and everytime i try to educate them they mock and ridicule me to oblivion. Western europe truly is a hopeless pile of garbage. Thanks to the social democracies (nice move bourgeois pigs) people dont see the need to overthrow the capitalists when they are already fed the absolute bare minimum (free eduction and healthcare) by them while still being significantly poorer than the capitalists who are still fucking up our economy and politics. People are so liberal here, its like someone made a concentrate of Liberalism and spoon fed it to every-single person from man, woman to baby. *uh but freedome but muh democricuh * i cant hear it anymore. Its not enough that my family is constantly argueing about the shit in ukraine while im just sitting there having to listen 24/7 to "The russians were always authoritarian burglars, thats just their nature" and "Russia needs to be bombed its the only solution". Oh pls just somebody, China perhaps come and liberate the people from the western hegemony. The west needs to fall and when it does while watch with joy.

ps. Sorry for the outburst here but i really needed to get that out of me

You clearly don’t live in the south lol. You’ll never catch people talking about sanders down there.

What you’re looking at is a system of propaganda and radicalization. The 24/7 news cycle has created the dynamic of left vs right. It’s only made people angrier and more hostile and less willing to see the other side. This dynamic was engineered to keep people busy fighting each other instead of being angry with those who run the show.

Instead of people hating on billionaires people love them instead. Instead of people loving their neighbors they hate them instead. Pretty fucking backwards if you ask me.

I’m afraid the system is working and it’s operating at full effect.

I genuinely don't believe Amerika is salvageable; and even if it was, I'm pretty far past believing they even deserve that labor. Let it fall, let it die, let it be a warning to whatever future is still left, if any.

I actually live in the deep south. Maybe it’s my city but people love Sanders in my area. They maybe dislike the rich but only want to slightly increase taxes. I just find it ridiculous that those who are harmed by the billionaires will still defend them. They hate “authoritarians” more than anything else. They would rather have landleeches and billionaire robber barons and war lords running the country then support people taking real action against them. More and more I feel the only solution is a guillotine.
