    Americans be like

    from my (admittedly limited) knowledge of european politics, and my experience with canadian and quebec politics, i can tell you with confidence that this is very much not a problem exclusive to the USA; it’s endemic to the whole global north

      Also a problem in australia. It’s a big myth that without mining companies australia would basically be a developing country but in reality they pay no taxes and they don’t contribute to the economy at all.

      This is why those rich fucks want an internet ID for everyone. They want to know who is looking up how to DIY guillotines.

      Can’t wait to watch the “blue no matter who” and “I have a fixation on the genitals of trans folks” crowds duke it out again in a rigged election system.

    Let’s be honest, the average american isn’t saying rich people. They are saying “them” or “the deep state” or some other dogwhistle relating to jews. Or they’ll just find a term that abstracts the problem away from rich people.

      It’s because they all are delusional thinking, I’m a billionnaire too, just not right now.

      Spoiler: no one ever becomes a billionnaire without literally being born out of the womb of one. And even then, they don’t get born from the cunt; but from a c-section because they’re all hoo-hah about not having to do any of the work.
