    They feel they’re prepared this time.

    The owners have gotten so much better at propagandizing the peasants from birth with the media they own and the curriculum they inform that there are literally millions of poor victims of this system that will fight to defend it against their own interests.

    True believers who kill themselves working for shareholders who would never even bother to learn their name, let alone let them into their country clubs, deluded into literally believing anything but this rigged market capitalist hellscape must be an evil marxist, Leninist, socialist, communist word salad of terms they don’t understand at all but were indoctrinated to hate and fear anyway.

    The owners numbers are tiny. Their doting, self-hating class traitors are what prevents what you propose.

      I fear the only way to really make a dent against the corporations is to go full Johnny Silverhand on them.

      All that matters is SCOTUS in the end, and they are up for sale. My guess is that they already have their votes lined up.

      Nononono. It’s not the super wealthy people that are the problem. It’s the poor people from a different ethnicity or gender or generation that are the problem!

      These guys enjoy thousands of people. A few hundred would overwhelm any reasonable security force. They may feel safe but they aren’t.
