I genuinely think most Americans want a better society where everyone is cared for. The problem lies with the very rich telling the very poor that the only way to achieve this is by exclusion, e.g. some people don’t deserve to be better off. This creates a divided country where rather than everyone being deserving of an all around better life, folks lean into the deep running individualism that permeates American culture.
When the very rich control the political decisions, the media narrative, and a majority of the capitol, it’s a slow motion train wreck at the expense of the people and the environment.
I think the general vibe is, disappointed but not surprised.
TLDR: “Yo chat am I cooked?” “You’re burnt toast on a 110 degree day”.

The rich will keep getting richer and groceries for 2 people for 1 week will eventually cost $536.87. Also everyone in power will lack actual common sense because they've never experienced any semblance of struggle or difficulty.

Here are some direct (fr I am not exaggerating AT ALL) quotes I overheard from the group of older (white) men discussing the election at the coffee shop while watching lectures lol
“And the lgbt…they want this and that…”
“And we need to separate them into their own church bc it’s going off the rails with the gay features!”
“They are constantly complaining. Look, money has been tight for me too before! And my dad always said, you just need to budget better.”
“Did you hear? At the Kamala Harris rally, she said that we don’t allow Christians here. Well, not those words exactly. But her message was clear. No Christians allowed.“
Thx for the bangers guys

like hoooooly shit, the various things people like peter thiel, curtis yarvin, and their circles (including musk) say sound so insane because they are fucking insane people. but I feel like I sound insane when I'm like no like they've publically said they want corporate cities ran by billionaires where we're all their slaves and the people who aren't good enough workers will be turned into bio fuel (and the people behind these ideas are backing/heavily influencing people in office and creating surveillance companies and brain chips and shit but that's a whole other post)

You don’t need to suffer to prove that you’re a good person. You don’t have to stay with the job that makes you question yourself and you don’t have to keep dating that person you’re not quite clicking with. If something feels off then it probably is. I’m not advocating for immediately abandoning your responsibilities and throwing caution to the wind; but in our hearts we know when something is working and when it isn’t.
That thing called intuition is your soul, and you can trust it.
