A lot of people seems to feel
very on edge these days. More aggressive and more angry.
And you know what, I totally get it.
I feel this way too.
Everything is on fire and we feel powerless. It sucks.
But if we eat each other, there will be nobody left to fight the oppressors.
While we fight each other,
while we drain each other,
they win.
Do not let authoritarian oppressors win by shooting at your allies.
Even if they're not allies you agree with all the time, even if they're temporarily allies for an urgent cause, focus your energy on the real danger. Do not drain allies' supplies, even if they are imperfect allies. That's what your enemy wants you to do.
We must support each other in these difficult times, if we want to even have a tiny chance to create peace, acceptance, and inclusion for the future 💚

"We still have so much power to act in public..."
How Himmler made the practical and "humane" case for expanding the German concentration camp system. And why we're on a different path from Berlin 1937... for now.

Biden was not a choice he was an alternative. Which was the only reason he won. I had predicted, given his history, that he would lose against Trump. I was wrong. Personally I would vote for a drunk dog with mange problems over Trump. Though unfortunately (for me) others believe he is competent.
What is sad is that people believe in democracy while from Clinton onwards it doesn't really make much of a difference who wins, bankers and accountants dictate policy inwards, oil and defense industries dictate policy outwards.
Do you think if the furthest to the left congresswoman/man senator was elected they could change anything that really mattered? Change in policy automatically has a cost somewhere and those someones are much better represented

We could stop spending trillions on unnecessary military 'superiority', *or* we could save a few million by firing all the people who keep our nation at the forefront of research.
But hey, at least ICE is getting a $72,000,000,000 bump in funding...

The problem with this meme is that it perpetuates the unrealistic view of a billion. People just do not grasp how much a billion is. Consider this 500 x 365.25 = 186,625 now 186,625 x 5000 = 913,125,000. So why are these numbers significant? Think about it this way. If I gave you $500.00 everyday for 5000 years then you still would not have a billion dollars. Think about that. Obviously a billion dollars in our largest denominations is not going to fit in a lot of buildings let alone a wheelbarrow.
The next time you here about a billion (or a trillion) really think about how much that really is (especially in relation to debt).

Divide and Conquer is not a new strategy by any metric. The United States of America has been perfecting this methodology for quite some time. Those in power (the oligarchy) own all of the main stream media and use it to try to create as many fractures in our society as possible. With full understanding that as long as we fight amongst ourselves we will not be focused on them. They divide us on every line conceivable and then we invent new ones to help them.

in reply to Unus Nemo • • •Those that own the media control the propaganda. Ellul and others have pointed out that control of the media is a necessary prerequisite.
Yes we are furiously agreeing.
