I am currently reading “Lost Cause”, and I really don’t know how @pluralistic is going to pull off a denouement that will defuse the seething rage I feel right now.
Why do we let billionaires poison the world? Why do we tolerate the owned politicians who enable them? Why do we respect a legal system which lacks any and all legitimacy? Why do we let a small minority of incomprehensibly dumb fucks dictate what is “right”?
Grr.

@maugen @pluralistic This has long been the way of the world. Frederick the Great noted this when one of his general looking over the army about to go into battle said ‘we are so powerful’ and Frederick retorted’No they are, we are weak - they can destroy us instantly but instead will go and die for us’. Plus ça change…
