Part of why we are unhappy is that we do not have any agency in the decisions being made on our behalf. Power and money needs to be decentralized and evenly distributed across the people who work on its behalf. We don’t have that. It seems really basic but it’s why the right keeps acting the same across cultures and languages.

There is an injustice put upon us all by the established institutions - the left tries to make the institutions work while the right tries to tear them down as malfunctioning. We all agree that things aren’t working. We are not able to agree on why because the reasons are many and we are pushed so hard that we cannot spare the attention or energy to do more than want to tear down a single source of frustration.

The way to unite everyone for change is to bring the economy to its knees and make the rich suffer the only way they know how - take their money with the invisible hand of the market. General strike is usually legal. Stochastic violence against corporate executives, lobbyists, and politicians isn’t but just as effective. Don’t forget that the day after United Health lost their CEO, another health coverage denier, Blue Cross, overturned an inhumane business decision they were aiming to force on their customers.

Shame works too but no one seems to want to publicly humiliate the people responsible.
