Honestly, I really don’t think it can be. When you scrape away all the paint and polish and just look at the actions of our nation it’s actual values are very evident and consistent. Property and money have rights, people only get them by having the two. Success is measured by the amount of defeat you deal. As things that benefit everyone are considered losses.
After 180 years of fighting for equality, women still have less control over their bodies than I do over what’s allowed on my property. When public works are sold as a universal good, they almost always work in an exclusionary way. The poor side of town where a bus route is most needed will have half as many stops as the business districts that no one takes the bus to. Almost all crimes can be paid for, allowing you to commit them so long as you afford them.
These aren’t new things, this has been happening since day one and we’ve spent twice as much learning how to make it look pretty than we’d have needed to fix it. It’s the makeup and masks that hide the disease as we tell everyone else they’re lesser for marching gawdy attire. Every black man dragged behind a truck, ever child raped by their parent, every homeless person beat by the police has been in service to the true ideals we hold.
The makeup can’t replace the person, it needs it to exist. If we want an america that isn’t a wretched, soulless walking corpse we have to kill it, bury it, and salt the ground around it so it might never feed new growth and replace it with the values we actually want. We’ll never be able to cut enough of the rot away to save the body that exists, it will always be a disgusting game of racist, Nazi Wack a mole.
'Murica wasn’t founded on some lofty ideals of freedom and shit
It was a bunch of cunts who decided to steal a country because they wanted to rule rather than be ruled
The indoctrination that yanks experience since birth has been amazingly successful. So many of them believe the bullshit, and the rest are either still being eradicated (native peoples) or are dismissed as “woke” whackos
At this point, there appear to be two options. Start young and build a political career, locally to build a reputation as someone who cares about the people and will make things happen and foster this reputation with a good PR team and a really good team of dubious people to make sure your competition can’t compete. I imagine it’s hard to run for mayor if your house burns down. Eventually work your way up until you too are the powerful and hope that you don’t lose sight along the way.
Second option, the list of rich and powerful people are publicly available and we know exactly how they got Luigi. Each iteration improves on the last.
I think they got the people who were predisposed, and those on the borderline
The reality is 'Murica is a hateful country, ruled by fear, and it always has been
People will do shitty things if they can personally benefit, but’ Murica celebrates it
Uh… how is someone “predisposed” for being hateful?
Being born in 'Murica seems to be a contributing factor
Yeehaw
But it could not be so maybe? This feels like more billionaire friendly doomerism
