That looks like a tasty TACO.
Fuck with enough people being able to afford life and find out. It's crazy to me that capitalism could have hummed along throwing some crumbs, and instead decided to motivate people against the system.
It's not quite the Streisand effect, but it looks conceptually similar. We're fucking sick of getting no COLA while the boss spends six weeks of the year vacationing in Europe. Oh, and your food stamps? Yeah, you don't need those. Section 8? Why are you so lazy? Just get a third job so that private equity gets your rent.
The system is broken beyond repair.
So, I've been seeing this new conspiracy theory; they're intentionally making life terrible so that we revolt, making it easy for the "new order" to rule. It's becoming increasingly convincing; it seams more feasible. I don't know how much longer people can take this pressure. Not sure about the new order part though.
Oh they're still doing these. Sigh.
Europeans: “Where are all the protests guys do something!!”
Europeans when Americans protest:
I mean is it too much to ask for these to happen on a weekday? Just because I want Americans to protest doesn't mean any protest will do.
You can’t win, when they’ve done it on a weekday you get everyone complaining its not on a weekend
What? I have literally never seen someone complain about this.
Well your experience is not representative of the whole
