      “So we’ve tried to occupy wall St, but how about we just burn it down instead?”

      (But actually what would work is burning the rich’s homes down with them inside instead.)

      Yeah I find it very funny to hear people talk about eating the rich and all that because honestly, it’s political right that’s closest to a “new French Revolution”, the left is way too peaceful to do anything like it these days… In North America anyway.

        Step One is to help both sides realize that “left” nor “right” are worthwhile distinctions. It’s haves and have-nots. Everything else is distraction to pit us against each other.

          Yeah but when you rebuild you still have to deal with the political opinion of the people who are have nots but still believe in capitalism.
