I feel like the UK is waking up faster to the need to tax the oligarchs than most.
TaxWealthNotWork.
I hope they also wake up to how much reactionary propaganda affects their life and that e.g. trans people just want to live.
by the way, i'm curious, what does "reactionary" even mean?
is it re-action in the sense of acting again? is it reaction in the sense of responding to somebody else's actions?
Reactionary in politics often means going "back to the good old days". Stuff like back in feudal/monarchy people used to have honor, courage, and respect. We didn't used to exploit nature. People were more happy etc. etc.
When in fact, LGBTQ rights were abysmal, rascism and slavery was the norm in "good old days".
We should criticize the current system and move further ahead not backwards
oh yeah that makes sense, thanks
