    our big problem is too many people hooked into propaganda machines like they’re in the matrix. too many people on bluesky, twitter, facebook, lemmy, and at their local mcdonalds watching mass media news, all without connecting to anyone else who can help them muster resistance or help them direct their feelings.

    the revolution will not be televised. people need to go outside and start talking to their neighbors to dislodge them of the notion that this is politics as usual
