Western politics already has a vehicle in which to accomplish your 3 bullet points called regulation. The problem is children in charge and the voters apathy to hold their feet to the fire.

People should get mad, not at each other but at their "masters" that aren't supposed to exist. The powers that be want us to argue amongst ourselves

It’s not children in charge, it’s old ass white guys who depend of screwing everyone over to maintain their standard of living.

Age and skin color especially don't matter when you a corrupt politician taking corporate bribes.

[–] cdf12345@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

I mean it does matter, because of who is doing the bribing

[–] DeanFogg@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Either way. Still arguing with ourselves. If we can agree there's less to talk about and only action remains

Yup, society isn't real and everything sucks because of single individual actions that have devastating effects (/s)
