You can’t have a free society when you have corporations and governments using their massive budgets on the best of psychological manipulation. This should, of course, be illegal.
Just like you wouldn’t put up with an abusive spouse that lies and manipulates you. Just like you wouldn’t tolerate a boss or coach that is a criminal. People in power should absolutely be held to a much higher standard.
Instead, because of liberty (AKA the rich and well connected can do whatever they want with no consequences) we live in a dystopian two-tiered society that worships money. We even have a word for it. Fuck you money, the ultimate ideal and freedom in the US.
Sadly, abusive people are normalized and even praised among enough people still. The “tough coach and break their will to mold them into stronger people” BS. It’s pervasive in families, supernatural groups, sports, military and authoritarian leaning politics. It’s the same pattern of punch down on others, obey those above you and don’t question. Hurt others as you were hurt and call it normal. It’s tragic.
Yes, I can see your point and I agree. The amount of abuse that is normalized is staggering.
They even profit off the threat to their own foundational game.
…voting is never going to solve this… I don’t think violence solves it either. Violence and war is like a bandaid.
You are surprisingly astute. It is refreshing to hear. Thank you.
