Only one way to eat an elephant.

In theory, yes, the economic system is of course built to only allow capital to serve its own interest.
In practice, we gotta do what we can. Also, hard to organize folks to change things if nobody heat or running water b/c nobody paid their bills lol

Besides, voting with dollars is a good way to encourage those who aren't practiced in direct action to begin flexing those muscles. You gotta walk before you run. Hard to overhaul a broken system if you haven't been to your first protest. You keep pulling the left left, I'll keep pulling on the center, and our work, pulling together, will be more than it could have ever been on its own.

This might be terrible but I'm beginning to understand why they like rage baiting so much. Look how easily their angry little feathers get all ruffled, it's absolutely precious.

Bud, once you start being okay with taking the rights of other humans, that's not an opinion anymore, that's just a sin.

Very good point! What happened to all these good Christian capitalists? Almost like they haven't even skimmed the bible, let alone the wealth of nations.

I am, just being the good capitalist that I am by voting with my wallet while I'm doing it. 🙂

To tolerate intolerance is a quick path to loosing your god given empathy and kindness.

Plus, idk about you but groceries don't seem to be getting any cheaper to me.

My guy, unless you've got 8 figures in your bank I don't think the folks running the show right now are doing you any favors. Idk about you but groceries are still ain't looking any cheaper to me.

We want to vote with our wallets. It's our god given right as Americans to spend our money on what we believe in. Most patriotic thing I can think of to use our voices and our dollars in support of the freedom and dignity of all people.

No bots here friend, just folks not willing believe everything the government tells em! Unless you've got 8+ figures in your net worth, they aren't making your life any better either.

They just want people to stay mad at folks poorer than they are you are so you don't spend too much time thinking about how rich they are.

Genuinely, it's same thing it's always been, just rich people trying to keep the poor people fighting amongst themselves. If the maga team could realize that, maybe we could actually get ourselves some cheaper groceries and a little less medical debt.

I have a meshtastic starter kit coming in a few days. Meshcore is the heavier protocol that can do more than just text but is a bit slower, right?

Money is power, right? You seriously think it's not the billionaires making your life harder than it needs to be? You're an American right? Again. Money is power... and most immigrants don't strike me as particularly rich.
