There are a lot of reasons for the downfall of the #USA but a big one is the purchase of traditional #media by plutocrat goons

@benroyce Opinion: In the short run, eating billionaires is healthy for society.

@benroyce That headline prompts only one question: "Which 'us', specifically?"

@benroyce
It breaks my heart that groups seem to find it easier to use physical violence than non-physical methods of coercion, like economic (or other) sanctions.

@benroyce Please say that it's 14 years old! When did Bezos buy the WP?
Until now I trusted your posts. But using content in such wild combinations, sorry ...

[jaypeach53@calckeymusic.social]

@benroyce@mastodon.social yeah, the “us” is the plutocrats.

[jaypeach53@calckeymusic.social]

@nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social @jamesmarshall@sfba.social @benroyce@mastodon.social All MSM is plutocracy-aligned. Has been for decades. At least since the late sixties.
