Boy howdy do i love all of these memes telling us how rich people aren't scared of folks complaining on the internet. The internet and its abilty to unite the Working Class quite literally has Billionaires quaking in their boots which is why Capitalism is so quickly evolving into out right fascism today. These memes complaining about people complaining might as well be made by Elon Musk or a Landlord, cause they are so clearly trying to act like they arent bothered, all while the rising tide of class consciousness is threatening the status quo that allows them to rob the everyman, in order to aquire vast ammounts of wealth that most of us cant even comprehend. Memes are the new pamphlets and this era of Capitalism is going to end.
I would like to introduce you to the US military guides to memetic warfare (or, how I learned to stop complaining and love the psyops):

Welp, the past 10 years of my internet usage make alot more sense, and I now understand why so many leftist spaces on reddit were just "off" and not actually advocating for anything other than "viva revolution" .... holy shit so much makes sense now...
Sounds like you surrounded yourself with LARPers, the leftist spaces I've been in actually have ideas
That was sadly the case in alot of the reddit spaces that I originally thought were intellectually honest places to discuss leftist theory.
Okay, and what changed your mind on that?
I would imagine it was leaving "Plato's cave" and coming here?
I'm sorry ... are you calling all people that are online and left of your politics government shills ?
So you are a typical right wing conspiracy theorists, then ?
You comments and posts make so much more sense now that I know that for sure.
Lmao never said that you little yahoo you. It only takes one or two shills to derail a whole community, especially if they moderate it and make arbitrary rules. Calling that out is far from a typical right wing conspiracy. Its hilarious the assumptions and leaps your comments make.
