By now we've all seen the 'files', if you're like me you've used various AI to cross-reference them with other things like financial crashes, who else might be a 2nd, 3rd, or 4th degree connections, where do they work, etc etc etc and at the end of it you see the web of parasitic elites running our society.

How do we just go back to 'normal'??

The capitalist world has always been run by capitalists. We do what leftists have been trying to do for centuries, organize the working classes to institute socialism. There is no way to "go back to normal," there has never been a time in capitalism where the people have been in charge. Rather than letting a tiny subsections of society, the most ruthless plunderers and scoundrels run society, the people should be able to run society for the benefit of all.

Join a worker-run party! Educate yourself on theory, agitate among the people, and get organized!

If you want a place to start with theory, I wrote a basic course on Marxism-Leninism you can check out.
