America needs a movement to curb billionaires' power - Lemmy.World

I propose we call it the Luigi Movement

As an American I can tell you that the biggest hurdle to starting any sort of revolution or meaningful societal change is finding leadership willing to risk having a target on their backs to rally the masses to action. Anyone willing to be the first to step up will be harassed, pursued, abused, and potentially killed.
That should be easy in the Land of the Free, Home of the Brave
Dunno your country, but if you’re not from the US, the people that say those jingoistic celebrations of the country are the most right wing of us. I live in a very heavily right wing state and patriotism is laid on so fucking thick because if somehow people were to take off the patriotism glasses they’d figure out they’re getting robbed blind.
