It’s Not Hypocrisy, You’re Just Powerless
- codefreeordie 4y agoPointing out the hypocrisy is a useful tool -- it helps demonstrate that the balance of power is so unequal. One of the primary reasons that the power balance is as uneven as it is is because Class B members are mostly unaware that they are in a war that they are losing through lack of notice. Class B is sufficiently populous and sufficiently capable that it could fight back the overreach of Class A to reclaim some access to the levers of power were it willing to do so. But so long as most members of Class B don't see that they are Class B, they will not unify sufficiently to win.
