It's a lot easier to punch down than up.
Same reason why these mass shooters NEVER target boardrooms or gatherings with lots of rich people.
Same reason no terrorist group ever attacks yachts or private jets or helicopters. You mean to tell me both al qaeda and isis hate american imperialism but had ZERO smoke for wall st--the thing that funds it? Instead of hitting the NY stock exchange they go after the world trade center? There is something about power that makes even an insane person refuse to target them.
I remember after that health insurance CEO got capped the media made a lot of noise about how it could trigger copycat killers but nothing happened. This country conditions people to always punch down.
Its not that companies are employing immigrant labor because they don't want to pay fair wages, it's the immigrants themselves that are the problem.
Its not the government refusing to provide education, training, and basic social services to poorer parts of the city, it's the people who are forced to live there because they have zero job prospects that are the problem.
Its not that the government bails out rich people with our tax dollars, it's poor people being too lazy. At all levels Americans are taught to blame the people who are victims of the system rather than it's creators, those who perpetuate it and those who benefit from it. It has worked brilliantly since the beginning, and with a.i. now they can just straight up fabricate video footage or images of people committing crimes to farm rage and ride that rage to more wealth, power, and reinforcement of the oligarchic white supremacist status quo.
