Real change can only happen if the poor (people earning less than $1M per year) unite against the rich. Instead, the poor are hopelessly divided and fight pointless culture battles, like the main/master debate.
- snakeboy 6y agoI don't think anyone making less than the median US income has even heard of the main/master debate :) But sure, I agree with the larger point. Culture wars are great for keeping the weak divided. The $GME fiasco - albeit a bit silly - was the first glimmer of hope I saw in a long time towards that unification. Hopefully there's more to come.
- wernercd 6y ago> poor (less than 1m) the top 10% globally is 30k... which is low income for Americans. Americans bitching about the 1% is laughable.
- solveit 6y agoIronically, America basically shows how the 1% can maintain control of the global hegemony for decades without any effective resistance. The fact that this system of oppression is fractally recursive adds to the irony.

- tolbish 6y agoWhy is it laughable that Americans want a better world for others? Most Americans have no control over what their country's leaders do.
