We're close to reaching a "let them have cake" point of elite arrogance.
- h_anna_h 6y agoWe were already on that point at least since the bank bailouts.
- swiley 6y agoEvery day of 2021 I'm thinking those people with the guillotine were less crazy.
- NortySpock 6y agoThose elites making the rules and the power plays need to remember: "Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable." John F Kennedy Elites: better leave some safety valves in the system. People have been getting angry in the last year.
- piva00 6y agoPeople have been getting angrier since 2008. Lots of those that were young and suffered through are adults now, the ones that were adults are getting older and everyone is still pissed off about what happened. I definitely feel I'm getting squeezed, even though I've increased my salary quite a lot since 2005, including moving continents to pretty good jobs in Europe. I can feel the squeeze in society, with friends that even in a rich nation with a good salary still don't look very brightly into the future. Climate disasters incoming, also propelled up by the elites (or at least delaying action against, inaction is an attack in this case). People were tired, now a lot are tired, bored, unemployed and angry.
