ID: a photo of a child scratching their head looking confused and maybe anxious, the text above says: “Damn… I’m kinda tired of living inside a giant pyramid scheme controlled by criminals who gaslight us into believing they are the good guys.”
That goes for the Democratic party as well.
Well yeah, that’s pretty heavily implied by the fact that neither party (or even country) is mentioned in the meme, also we’re in an anarchist community 😊
If you think the people elected in gouvernement are the people controlling us and not puppets, you’ve fallen for their trap
Capitalism and the state are both oppressive forces, and both need to be abolished.
The guys at the top of the pyramid here are the politicians. Regulatory capture, super PACs and blatant bribes are also part of the political machine and they influence the actions of those at the top. What trap are we falling for?

Yes, that should be obvious to even the most casual observer. In practice however it doesn’t matter. There will always be layers to any bureaucracy. The need is to start peeling back the layers.
For the record, this sort of rhetoric does not help. All you’re achieving (perhaps your goal) is to push people away from the fight.
It would be hard to say confidently that any given rhetoric hasn’t been captured by some purpose opposed to its overt intent. Words are more like Go than Checkers, and that’s part of the difficulty here. There’s a recursive pattern to this discussion: expressing a sentiment that the former statement has or may have been captured by malign intent. The urge to repeat that pattern is I would guess why there is writing here rather than none, and that isn’t bad even if it doesn’t exactly get anyone any closer to seeing the real big picture.
