This was during Occupy Wall Street right?

Yeah, can't remember if these were the ones who threw McDonald's applications at people or if that was somebody else, but that also happened

For a little while it really felt like things were going to change for the better, and those responsible for the Great Recession would go to jail. I am so tired.

Yes, justice always happens when the rightful and pre existing authorities throw the bad guys in a totally irreversible cage.

The liberal elites don't jail themselves for doing what they've always done.

They aint fucking elite.

Yes they are. Trump wasn't lying when he said he could shoot someone in Madison Square Gardens and get away with it - you go try it... and find out for yourself.

Im not using their self described words, no matter how correctly you define it. Words matter, I just dont know why anyone would give them such power in speech.

Theyre parasites.

[–] therealdries@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 18 hours ago

Theyre parasites.

Of course they are - liberalism is, and have always been, a fundamentally oligarchic ideology.

The term parasite describes the role liberal elites play in society - but it does not describe their ideology. An ideology that has been hidden away by the pretense that liberalism isn't an ideology at all - which is partly how they managed to pass this fundamentally oligarchic ideology off as "democratic" for so damn long.

It's still not too late for justice, keep up some hope that theres enough light to keep the dark at bay
