something i see often (not on hexbear mashallah) is people accusing trump of being a “fake billionaire”, then creating this mythical “good billionaire” in their head. these people say all these rich pieces of shit we see flaunting their wealth are actually “fake rich people” and that “REAL rich people” are humble, don’t buy overly luxurious brands, etc etc. and im not even sorry saying this but how fucking stupid do you have to be to believe that? yeah its actually fake rich people buying all the mansions and yachts and gucci and they’re the ones going to epstein island. real rich people live in modest houses and wear brandless clothes from a cheap department store.

people are so brainwashed to worship wealth that they cant put two and two together in their head that the majority of rich people are subhuman freaks who do nothing but exploit and enact violence against the rest of us so they make up these fake “good billionaires” that dont exist and act like those made up people are gonna save us from the orange man and from elon, who these same people were saying was one of the “good billionaires” less than 5 years ago

sorry to rant. but fuck these people.

there's nothing less fruitful to expend your mental energy on than the inconsistencies in liberals' minds. they're children, do yourself a favor and stop caring what they think and say

I'd love to agree, but without some means to sway what libs think, building a popular class movement is nigh on impossible. I'm not saying any one of us is going to be an orator so good it turns the US communist overnight, or that us chatting amongst ourselves will magically create the next super communism idea, but confronting lib ideas and conversations around it is kind of an essential part of eventually achieving positive change.

would be a lot easier if the dumb shit they think didnt dictate our entire existence but sadly the dumb shit they think has material consequences and its impossible to ignore that
