    The thing that always gets me is these asshole billionaires have convinced us that our neighbors are the problem while they reach into our pockets and rob us blind, all rhe whole spending billions of dollars a year on media propaganda to convince us these idiotic social issues are the problem when really, this is a class war. Always has been.

      It’s my biggest gripe with political dialogue these days. People are extremely tribal and close themselves off from their neighbors, families, friends, over ideology, relying on their heavily curated bubble to inform them of what the other side is saying/doing.

      I try to call it out when I see it, but it feels like a losing battle. Your neighbors aren’t your enemy. Isolating ourselves only benefits the “ruling class”, or whatever we want to call it.

        It’s hilarious that literally minutes after your comment someone replied with, “BUT MY NEIGHBOR REALLY IS THE ENEMY!”
