    Something tells me that their being out of touch with the lay peoples is about to have some unforeseen consequences for them. In the past the wealthy tried to keep a finger on the pulse as it were to know when to throw parades and shit to keep the peasantry happy. How long has it been since we’ve been given ANYTHING from the owners of capital? They really forgot how to maintain their power. Stupid as fuck NEW MONEY lmao

      They are getting more and more out of touch, and they have no idea it’s happening.

      We’re seeing signs of it every day. A Healthcare CEO is murdered, and the alleged murderer has the majority of the population on his side. A Democratic Socialist wins the NYC mayoral primary by a wide margin, and even his own party disparages him. Jobs are going unfilled because people are refusing to work for minimal wages, while corporations and the government sneer that they are lazy gamers. The streets are filling with enormous crowds of protesters, and their numbers grow with each demonstration.

      The Revolution is coming, and all of us are it know it, but the Sociopathic Oligarchs, and their enslaved politicians have no idea. They still think they are in charge, but it is only the ingrained politeness of the American citizenry that has kept their blood from flowing in the gutters.

      Once the American people lose their patience with the wealthy and their political slaves, it is going to get very, very ugly for the MAGA Nazis and their enablers (including weak, simpering, spineless Democrats like Chuck Schumer).
