Not sure what purpose this serves .

Any historian ought to know well that the bourgeoisie thrives on obedience to Power. Their skill and indeed their survival depends on riding both horses until the last possible moment before getting on the winner.

Modern history has provided institutional safe guards such as independent judiciary To keep this sort of thing in check, but successful capture of those institution has rendered them limp.

One should not expect to find allies against autocracy amongst current political class.

I love how OP has mass shooting fantasies and I’m getting shit.

Because many people are living in conditions significantly worse than OP describes ,with widespread poverty oppression and crime …. Today. And they are getting in with life, and having families, and supporting one another - not writing embittered murder fantasies on the internet.

Try telling your tale of woe to any one from Sudan, Haiti, Kurdistan, Afghanistan, Somali, Yemen, Palestine of course, and countless other war torn places, they’d just laugh.

As an old man, it is …frustrating to see the ‘nothing happened before I was born’ crowd telling us the world is doomed.

It’s selfish, privileged position and a worrying sign of excess news consumption.

Stop being selfish and get some help.

I have a love hate relationship with CoD Black Ops Cold War. It stops me enjoying other games. I need something the break the addiction !

Over the last 10 year I’ve only played a few games that I would say were awesome and they are all pretty obvious.

GTA 5, stardew vallley, god of war, subnautica, dirt rally, cod Cold War, AC Odyssey.

I have a backlog, but I think the dopamine hit of a good CoD round prevents me picking them up.

No hits for me this year 😒

all the media on this has been interesting, and I don’t know how much to apportion to general slowfootedness, and being out of touch - and how much to blame the billionaires pushing narratives.

Popular support doesn’t make murder right or just. But it is irrational for society to remain placid whilst being robbed of resources by a few bad actors.

In other periods of human history, they would have been swiftly ostracised- if they were lucky.
