Comment on billy
pyre@lemmy.world 7 hours agoyou’re literally talking about moneyed interests having too much control over the government. so yeah, billionaires and corporations are worse than the government in general. if you get rid of billionaires and shackle corporations, the DNC wouldn’t need to care about them over their constituents. same with the media. remove billionaires and chop up media conglomerates.

Name a government of any significant nation (ie not Luxembourg) and I’ll list the atrocities where they’ve wrongfully arrested and killed their citizens. The DNC doesn’t give a solid fuck about you, they like all politicians seek power and will do whatever they feel gives them the best odds of acquiring it. DNC panders to identity politics for the useful idiots that want to pat themselves on the back for accepting everyone’s fetishes, while the RNC wants to make every dumbass think they’re gonna be the next billionaire.
Go far enough left and you get Communists who murdered millions for wrongthink, go far enough right and you get Nazis who murdered millions for being the wrong race. Governments exist to abuse and enslave, that’s it. The more power you give them in either direction the further they take it towards one direction or the other.
