What is the point of this meme? I feel like the only thing this can produce is people to not try to reform and improve the democratic party and take it over (like the tea party took over the republicans). Kind of like these "give up climate change it can't be stopped" posts that just benefits the big fossil fuels companies
The komunist kids of lemmy like to outrage one another by invoking big bad capitalism, but always seem to side-step the fact that any and/or all forms of government/economies- when allowed to run unchecked, will exhibit similar results.
Look at both China and Russia. As authoritarian as it gets and the poors there suffer the same as we do, all all so that their elite can thrive just as ours does. And they like to pretend it’s not happening while in between the doom-scrolling on their capitalist-produced smartphones and watching corporate sponsored blowhards on YouTube their grubby little fingers point ever outward.
