    Yeah, sure. Wealthy people don’t have any power, even with all those newspapers and TV channels they own, or the politicians relying on them for donations and cushy jobs once they’re out of office.

    I refer you back to the Schumer quote and beg you to wise the fuck up. You cannot understand anything about this world if you do not understand how power works.

      Dude I have no fucking idea what you’re talking about. Poor people make up the majority of the country and poor dem voters criticize dem pols. Poor gop voters don’t criticize gop pols. That was the entire meaning of my original comment.

          The last time I checked, the right disowned that musician for clarifying that he was criticizing the wealthy right as well as the wealthy left. He was disowned by conservatives as soon as they realized he was criticizing them too.

          I think you are being weirdly aggressive in your approach to “debate”, if a debate is even what is happening here. This guy is not your enemy. You should focus that anger where it’s needed, at the actual enemy.

            The actual enemy being liberals who deliver us to fascism every fucking time. Don’t ever lose sight of that.
