u think america is this magical place where ebt receivers are out here killin it cuz they can trade stamps big brother gave them for drugs that big brother dropped off in your neighborhood to put u in jail for doing? i literally do not know anyone that does this, but i wont pretend it doesnt exist, and i do not consider anything youre describing in that paragraph to be lavish, or anything more than survival tactics. to you that means things aren't so bad.
none of this is relevant to the fact that the people that we allow to run our society are psychopaths that we've needed to overthrow for a long time, and chalking it up to 'well itll inevitably happen when things get bad enough, see he's buying drugs with free food stamps, things arent that bad yet' is a good way to ensure this group actually gets away with it forever. at a time when all new wealth is going to the top, how the fuck do you think we're gonna overthrow an elite class after another 50 years of a shrinking middle class when they all have spaceships and we still allowing our people to get thrown in jail for being the wrong color or for growing ginseng in the backyard? u can literally already buy teenage blood for a smooth 10k or something thats not even a secret. these dudes out here really tryna transcend dimensions and you think some dirt ppl gonna rise up with plastic forks and restore the natural order of history with mindsets like yours? revolutions take a lot of people working really hard for a really long time. no more no less

booth we have completely different views on the world. you think the government should help you. i think the government shouldn't interfere with anyones lives at all, good or bad. it should solely exist to deal with other nations. but thats my view.
you complain about this make believe elite class and point to the government as the cause of the problem, and in the next breath point to the government to fix it. you want to feed this problem with more of OUR money. you expect them to than redistribute our money "fairly". you expect them to infringe on the rights of individuals to "help" other individuals
i don't agree with any of that.
i'm not calling for a revolution. i'd like changes to be made, but my life doesn't depend upon those changes being made. so i'm not going to give my life to have them made. that is what is required for revolution. americans have it far too good to revolt and overthrow the system. thats all ive been saying.
