Good meme, the only thing I'd really emphasize is to expand it beyond United States. I think if you just focus on 1 country you give reactionaries an out where they say: "If only we had a leader like this little city state did, controlled liberalism would be awesome."
And I can see lumpenproletariat be persuaded by the likes of that guy. I don't want to name him cause I think he doesn't need any more publicity. It's probably just a vocal minority, but eh.
In China, the State prosecutes corrupt businessmen. But in the West, corrupt businessmen prosecute the State!
Written like a Russian reversal joke but sadly true, though.
Still trying to find tears which mysteriously don't come out when I hear of millionaire crooks being sentenced to death in the PRC. Must be where I left the other tears for the United Health CEO.
I saw Americans used to argue that they don't need to execute businessmen like in China, because they aren't as corrupt, and so don't have to deliberately execute them.
It is very clear that the Epstein case has blown this wide open and shown just how deeply, immensely corrupt the US bourgeoisie is. Now it only remains for them to realize WHY we are not allowed to execute the bourgeoisie.
ask them exactly how they think people like jeff bezos report 0$ on taxes and watch the fireworks lol
White collar criminals are only concerned when they fuck with the bourgeoisie. Then they know the state will go after them in full force.
