    I feel like breaking apart corporate control of the US should be one of the biggest pieces of a political platform.

      Such a platform wouldn’t get tens of millions in corporate bribe dollars legally deposited into the candidate’s BribePac, and would get nothing but hit pieces by the corporate owned media. The oligarchs own this fucking place. This isn’t a class war, that was about 50 years ago and we surrendered without terms, this is a class occupation.

      We can revolt, or we can wait for collapse. The good news? Capitalism is eating itself with no new places to grow/metastasize its grift, so we might just get to see collapse in our lifetimes, us clearly being too cowardly and subsistence opiate (social media, fast food, literal opiates, etc) addicted to revolt.
