I would love to see it, but I'm mostly just gobsmacked by how much balls-out plutocratic fuckery we're already accepting. Corporations snatching up all the houses, grocery stores jacking up prices with abandon, our sick joke of a medical system pricing us out of being alive, insurance companies charging more and covering nothing. People seem more upset about streaming services raising prices and shovelling ads into everything, but they're still fucking paying for them. It's insane the abuse that the public is willing to accept, provided that there's someone worse off who we can look down on.
Look all I’m saying is, when shit like this happened to medieval Chinese peasants, millions of landholders died and they still had more free time than us
(Before a liberal points out the obvious, I am aware technology has advanced since the Qing dynasty)
The systems of control they have created are resilient.
When you hear the GOP talking about how privileged we are to have indoor plumbing and refrigerators you really start to understand where they think the bottom is.
"You have a cellphone, in a world where everyone is pretty much legally required to have one...."
Yeah at this point they might as well complain we poors don't literally dress in rags and cough when we talk ala Middle Ages beggars
Bread and circuses
I never say this, but fucking preach
Can’t wait for November to laugh at all the crying libturd memes.

I hope the reckoning is swift and soon but I have a feeling this decade is going to end with most of us still saying "any day now"...
Always has been

Pretty much
Unfortunately most of my friends don't see a reason to revolt. They think that there aren't enough of us.
Arr ye matey whale be back on thee menyew.
I've yacht that sinking feeling.
If there was hope, it must lie in the proles, because only there, in those swarming disregarded masses, eighty-five percent of the population of Oceania, could the force to destroy the Party ever be generated. The Party could not be overthrown from within. Its enemies, if it had any enemies, had no way of coming together or even of identifying one another. Even if the legendary Brotherhood existed, as just possibly it might, it was inconceivable that its members could ever assemble in larger numbers than twos and threes. Rebellion meant a look in the eyes, an inflection of the voice; at the most, an occasional whispered word. But the proles, if only they could somehow become conscious of their own strength, would have no need to conspire. They need only to rise up and shake themselves like a horse shaking off flies. If they chose they could blow the Party to pieces tomorrow morning. Surely sooner or later it must occur to them to do it.
Maybe direct (organized) action. You know, in Minecraft.
That organized part is the hard part. Everyone is so atomized.
Yeah. Agreed. I even fall into that category sometimes. It's a difficult thing to overcome.
You mean like us all dabbing at the same time in Fortnite?
Sure. Don't play it, but I think you get the point. (I also don't play Minecraft)
I've seen a lot of comments like this for a lot of years...
In the 20th century, the "Roaring Twenties" ended with the great depression.
In the 21st century, we're in the "Screaming Twenties", and I hope it ends with a manic frenzy of plutocrat cannibalism... But I doubt it will have a catchy name or be called "great" by anyone.
Dear god I hope so.
Once Trump can no longer stand at the podium the establishment Republicans are going to be underwater with the monster they created.
Can’t wait for November to laugh at all the crying libturd memes.

Suffering winds the spring of reform.
God I hope so
I don't like asparagus
I made you some green beans Amandine and slow roasted cabbage, bon appetit.
Revolt will come from the Global South before it reaches the Imperial Core, but it will come. Exploitation is rising and productivity is too, so change will come.
Gosh, I hope so.
