Wealth inequality will destroy America.
(lemmy.nz)
This cartoon from The Seattle Times illustrates how America's economic pizza is actually sliced per capita, highlighting the massive disparity between the Top 1%, the merely wealthy, the upper middle class, and the lower 50%.
Maybe what MAGA could realize is that america was great when income inequality was more in-check.
Bringing angry MAGA folks to this conclusion would be a huge win for pretty much everyone.
We need blue collar union solidarity to come back, and bring with it safe reasonable high quality work on worthwhile things for our neighbors, compensated fairly.
Getting MAGAts to even THINK is a huge endeavor.
Defunded education, 24-hour Fox "news" coverage, and literal armies of sock puppet accounts are what you're up against.
The billionaires have taken over social media so they can fabricate their own reality using millions of fake voices and thousands of hours of emotional response conditioning.
What's your plan to fight against that?
I'm going to use a sharpie to write some words on a piece of poster board and then get lost in a crowd. Maybe something like, "Make America Fair Again. Tax the Ultra-Wealthy."

In the words of Ian MacKaye, "at least I'm fucking trying"
Yeah. This is exactly why education is constantly attacked. Gotta keep the serfs dumb and docile.
