Analysis: "Don't worry, be happy. All those who feared a dystopian future got it wrong"
"A world where corporations run the politicians, promote endless war & secretly manipulate public opinion through the media. Thankfully, these bleak visions never materialised."
"I hadn’t realised I would need to spell out what this piece is saying. It is not a description of some possible future, as some appear to think"...

As good an explanation of the toxicity #broligarchy as you can get in 15 mins
Not only is their a statement of the problem but also a four pronged solution for what’s ails OUR internet
The US is ranked #6 in the world for extreme income inequality. That's right. You can literally count on one hand the countries that do it worse than us.
You want to know why one of the wealthiest countries in the world (when looked at in aggregate) is disintegrating before our very eyes? That's the reason.

Tech companies are crying that Americans aren't buying new phones fast enough to keep the economy stimulated. Wages have been stagnant for, what, 44 years and you've got the gall to keep raising prices and cry we're not buying enough?
I don't think you should reward this shit with a click but, in case you must, I've got a barely tweaked URL to save you the trouble I already spent looking up the article.

THIS IS IMPORTANT!
because if wages have been stagnant for 44 years, that means people have been going into #debt, using credit cards to buy what they can’t afford.
make it a priority to not use your credit card for the next month. can’t pay cash? don’t go into debt. stick with that phone or computer or car for as long as you can.
the less you use your credit cards, the less #billionaires we will end up having.
starve the #oligarchy of our debt.
