It’s easy to understand if you realize that America is essentially a corporation rather than a country, and that country is only representing its shareholders.
In case you’re confused - if you’re not rich and powerful, you’re not a shareholder. You’re an employee or a commodity or an expense, and you exist to enrich the shareholder class.
Isn’t it kind of dumb to say that the shit giant media corporations report is somehow worthy of criticism of the US Government?
The state doesn’t run the media in the USA, lmao.
Isn’t it kind of dumb to say that this post is only criticizing the government when it says nothing of the sort?
State controlled media isn’t the only way a society can be corrupt, lmao.
It seems like grasping at straws to say the post title and description below the image are referring to a larger collective of people and explicitly not the state institutions, but in both cases you’d be a nihilistic moron for ignoring the nuanced sociopolitical landscape.
Problem with these messages is they blame the solutions for all their problems. They dont want to fix things. They want a reason to talk shit and encourage violence and destruction.
jesse what the fuck are you talking about?
The people that run the state run the media. Your senator doesn’t care about your vote, but the 9 mil in unofficial gifts from lobbyists of 20 corporations owned mostly by the same billionaire that owns half of all media outlets? They’re listening to that money.
One of he biggest media moguls in the US literally tried to become president and spent a billion dollars on his campaign
Lmfao
