It's the same picture

I'm counting on the GOP to crash the economy again. I've managed to buy the dip twice and look to buy a house big enough to move my dad in

You'll never be as good at this as a billionaire who can both bribe and wait indefinitely. Every crash since 2007 has made the working class poorer relative to billionaires.

“It’s because of your major donors…”

Remembering sept 10th, 2001, hearing about 2.3 trillion missing...

... doubting Trump's an architect, nor even operator, nor even agent, and continuing to presume merely asset.

Even a flat robin-hood style redistribution of all billionaire wealth gets us each a few grand, utterly dwarfed by how much richer we each and all are with the emancipatory technologies no longer being suppressed and inventors no longer being "disappeared".

Keep reminding the billionaires even they are better off with prolific provisioning of emancipatory technologies... no longer having to watch their back.

Do you have spaceships yet? And the reassurance that no one is trying to take yours?

Spaceships for everybody.

No cull necessary. Nor any billionaire ploys to pit us against each other. Nor any perpetuation of slavery and oppression via manufactured scarcity, nor the lethal mayhem pantomime of resource wars.

Remember a third of a year before that (^ sept 10th 2001), the disclosure project conference at the press club? And the free energy conferences around the same time. ... Before they initiated the cascade of contingency plans for mass distraction to allow the continuation of the PNAC's hegemonic jingoistic global domination plans (and the plans within that, and within which the PNAC sits) [the fake [but still lethal] terrorist thing, pandemic thing, [burgeoning] nuclear war, [upcoming] alien invasion, with side dishes of climage disaster [weather warfare weapons] throughout and economic/energy collapses peppered around]. We were headed for skipping ahead to the star trek future, and better. We still could sublimate to that. As I recall from those free energy conferences, there had already been over 3000 free energy device patents secreted by the year 2000 according to patent office whistleblower Tom Valone.

We have so much headroom, without the crooks keeping us down.

Imagine if we obsoleted the billionaire producing paradigm, reminded all would be billionaires that even they are richer in ending manufactured scarcity and embracing abundance.

No more billionaires, nor their puppets of hate.

Keep on dreaming while learning to learn, y'all. :)

... or so I aspire manifest.

... so much headroom...

What i find intersting and encouraging is that saying what you just said 20 years ago people would completely dismiss any line of thinking like this. Now, if i said something similar to someone in an elevator they would engage and want to discuss it. Change might actually be possible if minds were more open to the headroom possible.

Everyone arguing over the cause while rent just keeps going up 😅

its unaffordable because both dems and gop collude with each other over things like taxes. this time you cant just blame on trump, hes only the symptom of a larger problem.

That's like comparing a Ben and Jerry's Vanilla milkshake with a different brand of Vanilla milkshake. They are mostly exactly alike.

Oh, they know.

Trump is the worst president in American history.

"Yeah people with no power, how did you let them be that way?"

[–] Grail@multiverse.soulism.net 6 points 3 days ago

It's both!!!

[–] TehWorld@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

It’s not in the Democratic Leadership’s interests to not cozy up to the true ruling class. However they’re a bit better than the alternative.
