#USpolitics #Endgame

Isn't it obvious...
They want you to die, or at least be poor and miserable.
They think that they don't need labor any more to exploit the riches.
They think they'll only need the resources [as cheap as possible] and political power [or influence, 'cause they don't want to get dirty]
Poor people are easy to control. They won't rebell [they can't afford to]
They think they can 'run for the hills' when things get really ugly, and that's the plan.

But history shows there will be pitchfork [and Luigi's]

Quote by KA:
"Sep 1, 2025
As Donald Trump invades our cities and attacks unions, it is more important than ever to look to labor history as a compass to fight fascism today. And two of the most important labor struggles in American history took place right here in Chicago.
Let's revisit the Haymarket Massacre and the Pullman Strike, remember how those workers fought — and died — for our dignity, and recognize our own worth in the fight against authoritarianism."

The only appropriate response for tha crying FAFO farmers.
Wondering where the 'blacks' were for their jobs.
As it will be for all those 'mexicans' being deported: back pay, scholing etc.

Still wondering why you are called ignorant privilegiad people. The riches 'your kind' have taken for granted have always come out of the enslavement of other living beings.
H€ll, even the land you built that privilege upon was stolen from people with a different skin color and religion.

"Laurence Fishburne reads a former slave's incredible letter to his old master" [6:29 min]
by Letters Live

Quote by LL:
"Nov 9, 2023
In 1864, Jourdon Anderson and his wife escaped a life of slavery and moved to Ohio. A year later, he received a desperate letter from the man who used to own him, in which he was asked to return to work on his now ailing plantation. Jourdon's magnificent reply, performed here by none other than Laurence Fishburne at Letters Live at The Town Hall in New York back in 2018, was dictated by Jourdon and reprinted in numerous newspapers.
Jourdon Anderson never returned to Big Spring, Tennessee. He passed away in 1907, aged 81, and is buried alongside his wife and eleven children."

This video is 4½ years old. So why are 'they' so panicking ?
And it has not gotten better [at all].
But beware, he isn't the mayor yet, and it is a problem not solved in a day, a year or even a decade. But it can improve.
[If he makes a point... pause the video to think about that point, Good,Bad or Doubt]

"How Socialists Solved The Housing Crisis" [8:59 min]
by The Gravel Institute

Quote by TGI:
"Jan 29, 2021
American housing is in crisis. With more luxury housing being built every day while huge numbers of people are stuck with substandard homes or none at all, the U.S. model for housing has proven to be a catastrophe. Zohran Mamdani, New York State assemblyman, talks about how Austrian socialists in the 1920s and ‘30s pioneered an approach that offered better, cheaper, and safer homes for everyone."

I never seen a country so wrond about a political movement
because of years of indoctrination,
becuase of the need to have an enemy.
Out of ear for the enemy, 'they' had to make it worse. Every election.
I live in a socialist country. It is a ligetimate movement.
It DOES NOT mean that all means of production are owned and governed by the state.
The most important things in life are. Or mixed with privately owned enterprises but beholden to rules devised by the democratic government.
At least, that's how it used to be. Until Reagan and Tatcher came. Much was privatised, and deteriorated and got more expensive. Even later 'they' threw housing for grabs for foreign private equity to pick it up.
It's not as pretty anymore. Oligarchs walked in.
