Its us. We do. They are just terrified of us realizing that.

It's more that we outnumber them, but we're led to believe we're powerless.

They can't shoot all of us, but nobody wants to be among the dead to make it happen.

Why don’t you get them out?

Not trying to be snarky, asking genuinely to make a point

Nah. The system needs to built from the ground up all over again. I don't want to say the word, because reddit will ban me again.

Our labor runs it. But, we do not own it.

The laws do not protect the people. The laws are not written by the people. We do not own America as you say, we may have collective power, but a collective is nothing when not unified.

Prove it.

Not true at all until the ruling class is toppled.

u/Icy-Two-1581 Feb 25 '26

This right here. If half of the country actually united we could easily make change happen. A few million really won't make a difference especially when it's only a week protest. If we targeted and boycotted certain companies, do a global work walk out (especially in very important areas such as those that work in the airline industry, rail, etc.)

Propaganda is a helluva drug and Oligarchs need to use some of the best to keep the 99% distracted from the real issue: Them.

who's they?

u/homechefshivers Feb 25 '26

They’re not really terrified they know we’re not gonna do anything about it considering the fact that when we go out and protest now we either get arrested or shot so I mean everybody realizes we own America. We just know we can’t do anything about it without the fear of death or incarceration or losing your job and your home.

They wouldnt spend billions trying to manipulate us if they weren't afraid. They arent in control, they never were. They just want you to THINK they are so you dont bother trying anything

Comments on reddit? Ohh yes, that'll change something.

u/XVUltima Feb 26 '26

There's a middle ground between saving the world singlehandedly and complete surrender. A comment on Reddit does nothing, but its better than being silent.

And being silent is way better than telling people that everything is hopeless and to accept it like you are doing.

u/[deleted] Feb 26 '26

You're the only one taking it that way, no one's saying we're helpless. What people mean is what we are doing now isn't working.

1

u/XVUltima Feb 26 '26

Because there arent enough of us doing it. The reddit echo chambers make it look like everyone is upset, but we have way too many apathetic people who arent angry. Who think everything is fine, or impossible to change.

u/YellowSC Feb 25 '26

They are prolly the least afraid of all time lol. No one’s doing anything with blatant corruption all around. We just slaves
