    This supports my hypothesis that people are mostly emotional. They’re angry and scared so they lash out. They’re not thinking in a calm detached manner.

    Somehow we need to direct all the negative emotions towards the people who actually deserve it

      In fact, not people actually deserve it. We live in a perverted system that needs inequality. We need to direct our power against said system.

      It has been done successfully countless times in history. Just start reading non capitalist sources and be prepared to cry a lot.

      If we all do it, there will be no capitalist states left to destroy better solutions.

      It’s mainly an issue in the US. And Americans are not taught how to handle emotions or think critically.

        What is exactly an American issue? Because all the issues here are not exclusive to the US, they’re pervasive all over Europe, and as far as I know (second hand), the rest of the world as well.

          Post-national wealth is the thing they’re distracting us from. They’re more powerful than countries. They’ve basically bought the worlds superpowers. The axis of power is not nations anymore but collectives of oligarchs. As it stands it’s apparently the Russia, China, and America regions with billionaires toying the world like a board game.
