You need to be more alarmed about this.

Conservatives (and the rich tend to side with conservatives) have no imagination and project their own intentions on others.

I cannot possibly stress this enough:

IF THEY THINK WE'RE GOING TO VIOLENTLY ATTACK THEM, IT'S SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE THEY ARE PREPARING TO ATTACK US THEMSELVES.

They have THOROUGHLY demonstrated that they can't imagine anyone wanting to do anything but that which they themselves want to do, are preparing to do, or are ALREADY DOING.

Mark my words:

The rich are preparing to exterminate us all.

They don't care about extermination. Lol. How do you exploit the dead?

They want you alive. And supple to their desires.

No, not exterminate, just control with even further violence. The rich are stupid and useless, but they do know that they need bodies to do their work for them, even if they’ll never admit it.

This is, honestly, much worse because complacent people won’t fight back nearly as hard.
