This should be criminal.
My sleepy brain read that as “crimilionaire”
It’s wild to think just how much they are stealing from us in terms of time. The “cost of living crisis” is an interesting way of them stealing our labor. Like they set the prices for everything and record record profits year over year. We really should all be getting our pitchforks out and heading to the nearest capital building and demanding change. Fuck the peaceful protests
I haven’t watched the video yet, to be fair, but Johnny Harris is very much not a figure I’d trust on this topic. Not after his ghost written shareholder capitalism propaganda.

Your friendly reminder that companies and governments only do what the majority allow them to do. That’s why their main strategy is to divide and conquer. So while everyone is having a culture war they will slowly be screwing everyone over. By the time we figure out who can use which bathroom the government and economy will be collapsing.
