We should probably stop calling them a class and just say billionaires. Calling them a class gives them validation. They are just greedy shitty people

He is a symptom of the disease, and both must be dealt with as such.

Remembering sept 10th, 2001, hearing about 2.3 trillion missing...

... doubting Trump's an architect, nor even operator, nor even agent, and continuing to presume merely asset.

Even a flat robin-hood style redistribution of all billionaire wealth gets us each a few grand, utterly dwarfed by how much richer we each and all are with the emancipatory technologies no longer being suppressed and inventors no longer being "disappeared".

Keep reminding the billionaires even they are better off with prolific provisioning of emancipatory technologies... no longer having to watch their back.

Do you have spaceships yet? And the reassurance that no one is trying to take yours?

Spaceships for everybody.

No cull necessary. Nor any billionaire ploys to pit us against each other. Nor any perpetuation of slavery and oppression via manufactured scarcity, nor the lethal mayhem pantomime of resource wars.

Remember a third of a year before that (^ sept 10th 2001), the disclosure project conference at the press club? And the free energy conferences around the same time. ... Before they initiated the cascade of contingency plans for mass distraction to allow the continuation of the PNAC's hegemonic jingoistic global domination plans (and the plans within that, and within which the PNAC sits) [the fake [but still lethal] terrorist thing, pandemic thing, [burgeoning] nuclear war, [upcoming] alien invasion, with side dishes of climage disaster [weather warfare weapons] throughout and economic/energy collapses peppered around]. We were headed for skipping ahead to the star trek future, and better. We still could sublimate to that. As I recall from those free energy conferences, there had already been over 3000 free energy device patents secreted by the year 2000 according to patent office whistleblower Tom Valone.

We have so much headroom, without the crooks keeping us down.

Imagine if we obsoleted the billionaire producing paradigm, reminded all would be billionaires that even they are richer in ending manufactured scarcity and embracing abundance.

No more billionaires, nor their puppets of hate.

Keep on dreaming while learning to learn, y'all. :)

... or so I aspire manifest.

... so much headroom...

What i find intersting and encouraging is that saying what you just said 20 years ago people would completely dismiss any line of thinking like this. Now, if i said something similar to someone in an elevator they would engage and want to discuss it. Change might actually be possible if minds were more open to the headroom possible.

Everyone arguing over the cause while rent just keeps going up 😅

The same old history. Some people infiltrate and manipulate the lefties to not vote, until they will lose their power of voting forever.

[–] DudleyMason@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Nobody needs to infiltrate the left to get them not to vote for the center-right Democratic Party. The elected Democrats do that quite well with no help whatsoever.

"Here we go again, same old shit again."

Nina could have win her election if it hadn't been for Uncle Jim Clyburn and his oversized ego sabotaging her run.

Hrmm.

Seeing this again reminds me when I was recently told saying "Democrats" instead of "Democratic Party" is an indicator of having been watching too much right wing media.

House Democrats

It’s not in the Democratic Leadership’s interests to not cozy up to the true ruling class. However they’re a bit better than the alternative.
