    I'm saying you're wrong

    Ok I'm not even a communist for one

    For two you have a severe misunderstanding of what "the means of production" means

    For three I'm 100% correct, the proletariat literally cannot afford to strike

    Four I still barely understand wtf you're trying to say

  • If Joe doesn't approve of another one, it might happen. I think ppl are in disbelief. Maybe the 5 stages of grief haven't kicked in yet.

  • There is but it's just people crying on social media and sharing memes.

    social media has awarded people the feeling of doing something whilst doing absolutely nothing

    people have made a revolution a f***ing aesthetic to get hoes

    fitting into perfectly with the cycle of work -> distraction -> sleep -> repeat

    the conditions have never been more ripe for our psyche to be exploited and controlled

    Re.tarded republicans are the “pull yourself up by your bootstraps” type, and dumbass democrats think everything is gonna be fine since the bad orange man is out of office in a month. This is what happens when everyone buys into the broken 2 party system.

    Nothing will ever change and it’s too late to stop it, so just keep arguing about trivial issues like the color of someone’s skin or their sexual orientation or gender, take that $600 check, and be happy while these politicians and lobbyists continue to f*** us all into a dystopian wasteland

    White Americans & White Brits are the most selfish that’s why.

    Most people are unable to strike due to a multitude of reasons but some of the worst reasons:

    they believe helping people = socialism
    don’t have brains
    selfish
    will shoot the poor

    you’re talking about a country where a group of people show up to protests with guns to intimidate people protesting about police violence

    because it’s not affecting everyone

    a lot of people still had employment throughout this time, the $600 is just a bonus at this point. they have still been able to pay rent, buy groceries, etc. some even started to make more money

    not saying it’s right, just answering your question as to why US citizens aren’t reacting as whole

    many people have had it extremely hard, but for many other people, nothing has changed, that’s what it really boils down to

    edit: i do agree though, a one time $1200 payment and now a $600 payment is a complete joke. we are an extremely rich country, and our government should be doing a better job of taking care of its citizens that are in a hardship position right now

    They aren’t reacting because they’re busy trying to get their lives together some people kicked out their places etc

    what would a strike do? that moneys coming from the gov

    Just to clarify

    The money is being printed from the Treasury, and the Federal Reserve works alongside the treasury when it comes to monetary/financial policy. They go hand in hand usually

    I believe in total the government collects around 2-3 trillion in taxes. We spend more than we take in. Were able to spend more because the treasury sells trading securities, bonds etc. to different sources. Could be a foreign bank, a corporation, a big bank here in the US etc. The federal reserve here will buy stuff from the treasury as well

    The taxes of the middle class are most likely going to go up even if Biden is there. They're gonna want to recoup some of this money they're pumping in to the economy. I think they've printed like 3 trillion to combat the pandemic to try to stimulate the economy

    Look up hyperinflation if you want to learn more

    90% of Americans wanted $1200 checks. This isn't something we're divided on.

    All over twitter you see people with blm or acab in their bio or name and i mean i get that but that literally does nothing? It really seems like they just put it there for ‘aesthetic’. Feels like its mostly white people that so it too.
