An accurate comment on our absurd present

[BeyondGeography]

From Climate Injustice by Fredericke Otto:

“Imagine a city. a country where a group
of powerful people go around causing
indirect but catastrophic harm
to thousands of people. These people aren’t
on the run, and they don’t hide…And
yet nobody does anything.”

1. Applies to many aspects of life in the US

"Nobody does anything" as the oligarchy tightens its grip and degrades life for everyone else.

4. We will have to organize eventually.

Life won’t get better under republicans, they’ve always dreamed of this, the ultimate control of all of us. I wonder how long it will take for their supporters to figure out they’re getting screwed.

2. it's not true that nobody does anything. That's BS. The problem is the solutions/fixes are very complicated

unless you propose vigilante justice, terrorism or a full blown revolt.

3. Excellent points, LymphocyteLover. ...

I'm getting kinda sick and tired of simple minded whiners and pessimists. What's happened to good old gumption and grit? Didn't they used to be American values?
