It’s easy to understand if you realize that America is essentially a corporation rather than a country, and that country is only representing its shareholders.
In case you’re confused - if you’re not rich and powerful, you’re not a shareholder. You’re an employee or a commodity or an expense, and you exist to enrich the shareholder class.
Yep, get active, get involved, and volunteer. We don’t have to just hope, we can be a part of making it happen
Whether that be for a union or a political campaign, they are won when we fight for them
