You’re right, of course, that the billionaires’ all-encompassing power—especially through digital media—makes public resistance very difficult, but I don’t think that such blatant corruption, as the U.S. regime practices it so shamelessly and, above all, so openly, would be tolerated in my home country (Germany). I mean, this is literally organized crime on a scale that’s almost beyond belief.
Corruption exists everywhere, but such blatant criminality in public office seems to me possible on this absurd scale only in the land of superlatives.
I can't understand how this can be tolerated, especially since it has such negative consequences for the population.
Hungary. 16 years. It did end, but I still don't understand how did it end. and there were no riots, just an election.
that's what you do when (you feel) you can't organize.
but to be fair there are other things I can't understand how can it be tolerated, yet people are cheering for it, as if they are tired to bear their agency and consequences.
