(15,321 posts)All the suckers that have fallen for years of indoctrination in social Darwinism by the right wing noise machine will look at the people around them who are dying, and maybe wake up.
Same thing happened during the great depression.
In fact THIS is what happens EVERY TIME with capitalism. Even when it is held in check by a strong government, greed eats away at those checks until the whole thing is so screwed up it falls down like a disgusting, sickening, brutal house of cards.
And who gets hurt when that happens?
Not the fucking Wall Street greed-heads - they'll do fine in their gated communities with private security. All they have to do is sell short and they'll make a ton.
Not the fucking billionaire parasites. They can isolate themselves from the virus. They've already salted away over $22 trillion in hidden offshore bank accounts. Those fucking pieces of shit can just leave.
And us? Well, to the big, rich capitalist, we are useless eaters unless our labor can be exploited for profits, and our pay and benefits be kept low to maximize those profits. Otherwise we are all welcome to die.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
