    Because the rich have spent 2 centuries entrenching themselves in power, and literally everyone else won’t do a thing about it.

    We’re all so apathetic that the impending collapse of our ecosystem is viewed with a shrug. When it should be met with torches and pitchforks in the street, and Madame Guillotine for the rich and powerful.

    Nobody gives a shit because they’re all waiting for someone else to do something.

      Oh I’m pretty sure the rich entrenching their power goes back a wee bit longer than 2 centuries. Ask a feudal peasant.

        I mean in the context of the USA. But yeah you are absolutely right.
