they pat themselves on the back for accepting that the system is riggable and rigging it without realizing that the oligarchy built the system to be riggable to the detriment of humanity.
then you point this out to them and you become the oddball somehow.
it would do a log to remove the impetus for lots of violence around the world
it sounds like you hit the nail on the head with marketing; the other apps needs a huge marketing budget.
right?!
my cats wouldn't give a damn. lol
those were all socialist aligned movements:
the civil rights movement -- the black panthers in particular -- was literally socialists and bombed (also literally) because of it. MLK jr.'s cadre took great pains to ensure that their efforts didn't get labeled as socialist because of it. the environmentalists of the 80's/90's -- green peace in particular -- was also heavily socialist influenced and got labeled as such for not making efforts like MLK jr did.
now-a-days, the campaign misinforms americans that leftists don't reliably vote despite examples like clinton and obama proving otherwise and there being enough green, psl, dsa, cpusa votes to counter republicans easily. this misinformation is done to cover for the fact that the democrats don't want to adopt platforms that left leaning voters want and this is most recently self evident in kamala harris' campaign and its attempt to sway republicans to vote democrat rather than shore up her democratic base.

the disinformation campaign has been running since the mid 1930's and it's been taught in our schools and disseminated via legacy media since the 1940's.
a key feature of the campaign is to make americans predisposed to outright reject the alternatives that have already been proven to work in irl and all of those alternatives are aligned with what @Cowbee@lemmy.ml already told you.
anything else is going to be a rinse and repeat of what we already have.
i wish there was something that can be said when democrats are in control of the congress and the presidency (again) because of trump, but still aren't able to do anything because of a few holdouts (also again).
we've seen this story play out so many times in the last half century that you'd think people would learn from it; but we don't so the only conclusion you can draw is that not enough americans pay attention.
i pity future generations that will have to pay the price for this mass negligence and glad that i will be gone before the brunt of it hits.
