You act like people=people.

Like the past few decades of stripping education and anti-intellectual culture and anti-solidarity propaganda isnt a factor. Weve created a perfect storm to keep people obedient and subservient.

Weve all decided that giving all planning permissions and resource allocation to people whose way of life requires we be like this is righteous.

We need to exterminate the billionaires or life on earth does not survive.

We weren't flush with quality education and rich intellectual culture and a staunch labor movement several decades ago.

None of these problems are new or unique to the current moment.
