This is what I think when I see a protest getting pushed around. Protesters outnumber the cops xxx to one.
There are enough people that the protesters could hold the cops down, one protester per limb, another to find their cuffs and lock them up while the other dozen keep watch, backup or sing motivational songs!
Then I remember 1312 and the cops would pull out their guns the moment anyone pushed back legitimately
Thinking about starting the CMM - Common Man Militia, who’s in?
Also a new politcal party, do nothing Dems are just as bad as the Gathering Of Pedophiles.
Join me and we can start the NSB my brothers and sisters. No Scum Bags. Get money out of politics and Protect America.
The problems is complicated by the fact that a large percentage of people in Western democracies think that they could be a billionaire as well (if only the government, courts got out of the way). They tend to classify themselves as ‘almost rich’ and therefore vote and do whatever it is to protect their ‘really I’m about to be rich’ status. It is not just a few billionaire and maybe a thousand 100Millionaires, it’s the extra 100 Million people that think it applies to them as well.
If we hung up musk by his plastic surgery disaster-penis, took what his assets were worth (he’s worth nothing as a human), we could have more than a million millionaires, though…
I don’t think that’s the case, and lumping “western democracies” all into one pile is a mistake. There’s huge variety in how they’re run, from bad to good. Nobody thinks they’re gong to be a billionaire…Unless a big chunk of the population literally has severe mental illness consisting of delusions of grandeur, anyway.
What we do have is a population held by the balls. All of our security is tied to our jobs, and we’re constantly, constantly reminded that our “self reliance” is tied to our worth at the workplace, the social safety net is worthless and those on it constantly mocked and harassed. Lose your job and you lose everything.
Go to a protest and get arrested, miss work? Maybe you get fired. Go to a protest and get maimed or even killed, nothing at all happens to the LEO that does it. Maybe you’re fired or dead. Your family is now missing someone while the press drags your name through the mud. None of the protests have effected change, we’re still headed towards fascism.
So until a protest gets big and bad enough, nothing will happen because we still have everything to risk and nothing to gain. A big bad protest likely means people will die, that’s likely the only way to depose this regime.
I’m fine with going 1 on 1 with a billionaire.
I don’t think I’ll need any help but if you want to get a kick in here and there then I won’t deny you that pleasure.
have to you seen zuckeberg train? he’s ultra fit and has years of martial arts training; i don’t know about you, but i wouldn’t stand a chance. lol
I’ve had about 2 decades of different martial arts training, so I’m quite handy.
However I’m not fit or young anymore. Fortunately I’m a dirty fighter so if I was going up against a billionaire that I felt I couldn’t take fairly then I’d take precautions …HAIYA, POCKET SAND!!i’ve seen musk’s build; so you take zuckerberg and i’ll take musk. lol
Careful, muskyboy might Sumo you to death, haha
The problem is that billionaires have minions. Paid goons (mostly ex military or police) who will protect them. Of course, if we were to actually unify, the number advantage would be so overwhelming that it wouldn’t matter. The revolution or whatever you want to call it probably wouldn’t even take a week. But try to get an overwhelming number of people to agree on ANYTHING. Try it. Ain’t gonna happen.
Billions of us vs billionaires.
billions of us vs billionaires plus billions of apathetic people
Hypothetically if that happens, and if it were up to me, I wouldn’t kill them. Instead I would take away everything they have and let them work the lowest paying jobs with no healthcare, benefits, legal rights… let them have a taste of the life they have created for billions.
Realistically, I think they’re too dangerous to allow them to just stick around, and most of them have done terrible shit to earn their vast fortunes. Personally, I’m thinking Nuremberg style trials to decide between executions and re-education camps.
Its wild because both of these have the same outcome of just slaughtering the few if we work together.
Yes, that is absolutely true, but the wealthy have shown to be very adept at controlling what the public perceives as “reality.” They control the narrative for the majority of the public through ownership and control of the mainstream media. I don’t think it is possible to get enough people to unify against them and overthrow them in the modern age of bullshit. I hope I am wrong, but damn… I’m not seeing it.
100 men vs. Harambe is what got us into this mess
