u/ZookeepergameMost100 explains why the Presidential race is so close amongst the working class

How do you keep talking? How do you keep fighting?

The monkees will just keep fighting against their own best interests as well as ours. I look back at thousands of years of history and all I see are these people slaughtering innocents and anyone who offers up a viable way to stop.

Most people are evil. I used to think they were just stupid and confused but I've lived too long for that veil at this point.

Luckily for most of human existence they were just too stupid to do serious damage beyond their small local groups, but with the invention of writing and cities these evil ignorant animals can be wrangled to do great works of horror and terror; all while actively creating far more suffering for themselves than would otherwise be necessary.

I don't think I can fight anymore. I am not suicidal. I just think I might go find some people to hurt by making them think I'm great and that they should work for my success. I'll tell them it's their success ofc.

Is there any path other than that one or being brutalized by these people? I can't think of one that was any more than a flash in the pan quickly devoured by the wealthy and turned against its own cause. Can you?
