Comment on Erasure
NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 11 months agoAre you volunteering? 😅
That’s the thing, though. As long as most people can comfortably skate by, that’s what they’ll do. But, push come to shove, should things get bad enough, that’s when revolt happens.

No, I’m not volunteering because I don’t think either thing will work. But the people calling for those things to happen are waiting for someone else to do it.

Starving people don’t have much energy to violently revolt.

Only takes eating one rich person to get them back up though.

It’s going to take a direct impact on peoples’ lives. If the average person can continue to go to work, get a paycheck, and overpay for but afford groceries for their family, that’s what they’re going to do.

And if that never happens? If things get really bad but not that bad for Americans?
Still sounds like waiting for someone else to do it.
