Personally, I’d like to abolish the stock market altogether. But this is an attractive, actionable policy

    Yeah, it’s obviously hard to tell and not a great situation, no one should have to suffer. I still deal with them everyday and many and incredibly self motivated. Which is exactly what capitalism wants you to be. But, I do see many who are even further up in corporate roles that feel the same as I do.

    I really feel the world is coming to a head, where humanity is finding itself, globally, with two very generalized camps. Those that are selfish and that hoard money and power and those that are empathetic and care about supporting each other in spite of profit. I know which side I hope will win, and as more and more of the bread and the circus is torn away, more people in those high up places start to question things.

    It really sucks that so many fall into the selfish camp and until they’re personally affected they won’t move.

      I think broad success is going to come from finding people outside the “leftist” label that embody leftist ideals. I think there’s too much online atheist energy for our own good, Christians can be a valuable asset if we can learn to leverage the teachings of Jesus. Red state voters have that dog in them, if you learn how to engage it. I think the main problem is that we let vocabulary get in the way of the message.
