As I keep saying: anyone who isn't talking about organizing is wasting your time.
The bankers are the audience. Big tech is the matador and politicians are the cape. Guess who the bull is?
All that matters is the power that people have. The reason you have a 5 day work week, social security, etc. Is because much of America's economic activity was in the hands of people who owned factories, mines and railroads. The workers organized together and demanded better working conditions. For every day they weren't working, billions in revenue was being lost.
Cloud computing= the new railroad
Service industry= the new factories
Software= the new mines.
Service industry workers need to unionize. Tech workers need to unionize. If this doesn't happen, the owners of these platforms and titans in those industry can and will do whatever the fukk they want. Your only bargaining chip is also your strongest: labor.

in the aggregate maybe. but it is also propped up by the other 90%. just a 1% shift in economic growth is significant. even if the 90% spend a small minority, if they stopped contributing to GDP the country would fall into a recession, possibly depression.
GDP might grow, for a while but then big corps would start to fail.
That's a bank. Holding your bank deposits which gives the bank operating capital and stability. Without those there would be no one employed there to sell to the rich.

It's very likely we won't even get a chance to have a progressive president get a New Deal type situation going, if the Republicans truly go full dictatorship like they have heavily implied

Large scale homelessness is the consequence if they keep operating on that premise.

Life is absurd. Lean into it.
Oh, I'm sure the favelas and mass homelessness is coming. My issue is, they want to own everything and subsequently criminalize homelessness so you can't even escape the system.
yep you make 20K in Africa You matter.

I think it's the same in Kenya.
$1,000,000 USD in Kenya is like $130,000,000 in their currency.
I'm technically already "very wealthy" by Kenyan standards
If I go anywhere it'll probably be Kenya or Uganda high key.

It is the same in Kenya in fact even more so because there's more freedom in Kenya money matters even more.I think it's the same in Kenya.
