I know it probably feels comforting to claim the moral high ground and say “I told you so” but you’re just letting your own weakness infect the people on your side. Everyone has moral turning points in all of their lives and it’s a futile and stupid gesture to say your entry point is better than someone elses. Let’s focus our hatred on the people who deserve it: billionaires.
I haven’t made any moral claim. I haven’t said anything about right or wrong. Is this a case of you getting your platitudes mixed up? So many for Americans to choose from, hard to keep them straight I imagine. Words are hard.
The original post was some FREEDOM loving American asking where their saviour was. I responded by saying (essentially) look in a mirror. The Americans then all jumped on me to assuage the guilt they feel because my point is an obvious one. Then they all did that thing where they point to someone else to blame rather than doing the relatively simple step of getting involved themselves.
So,it’s billionaires now is it? Wow. The level of delusion is remarkable. for liberals it’s billionaires, foreign governments, and rogue news stations. For conservatives it’s immigrants, liberals, and the Clintons. Its remarkable to see the manufacturing of consent demonstrated so clearly. See Noam Chomosky’s book of that title for context - though I don;t expect anyone reading this will. low effort posts are easier.
