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

I propose we call it the Luigi Movement

Gee, if only we’d tried that before.

Remember the “1%” protests against the billionaire class?

It doesn’t matter, because every time people contribute to a 401k or go shopping at a chain box store, they add power to the 1%. Nobody wants to sacrifice their comfort or security. And we know from history how this ends…

I guess we should do nothing then because a half-assed initiative failed
Yes, the initiative failed. They have guns and all the money. We have memes. Game over.
Guess you deserve what you get then
One of life’s great ironies is that people rarely get what they deserve.
