Yeah ok, sure, just slap tariffs on things and make people scared and poor enough to revert to monke. I'm sure you'll be able to go back to the days of company towns and the industrial revolution in 2025. lmao.
They really have no clue about the context in which they live in. It's 2025. You can't just go back to a time where climate change isn't fucking your shit with constant disasters. You haven't even put any planning in place to reindustrualise. What, you think you can make shit expensive and companies are just going to pay to build factories themselves? You think the economy is going to survive nobody having the money to buy your slop anymore? You think people are just going to work for free? In 2025? You think they ain't gonna start looking at the rest of the world and wondering why China is leagues ahead of them? You can't hide that shit with propaganda forever. Your people are already burnt out and sick of this shit, they have been for years.
It's wild. They really think they can just ride out the coming storm by going back to victorian cruelty. Hilarious.
They are also defunding the propaganda in an attempt to pinch every penny, which ironically is going to weaken the cultural hegemony that keeps people subservient under capitalism. The ones in charge really don't understand how their own system of exploitation works.
They believe the agitation comes from outside the system. Which is very funny.
Mr Krabs was not a caricature. The bourgeoisie are literally like cartoon characters.
Elon Musk the type of guy to have his pupils turn into dollar signs.
It wouldn't be too off brand for him to go AWOOGA while making a young woman feel extremely uncomfortable
