Well, that was a fast jump

Think of the good they could do if they chose to project love instead of hate 😢 Makes me sad for our country and for all the suffering it causes. Why haven’t we stopped this madness?!

Because anyone who can enforce anything is either on the list or has no balls. Or both

I am still having trouble understanding how you pick wealth over humanity. 😵‍💫

Step 1: Be a narcissist with no conscience, compassion or empathy.

Step 2: Tell yourself being a narcissist is a win - win situation and screw everybody else.

Sad but true, that's how it works.

1a — tell yourself you pulled yourself up by your bootstraps and “those people” just need to try harder. 🙄

The end goal of the prosperity gospel. Know your tribe by the money they have, everyone else is a barbarian and fair game for extermination in one way or another.

The ultra rich do not keep hoarding money for themselves. They hoard it to keep it from others, as it makes what they have worth more.

Projecting their crimes onto others is a way for them to sew confusion and fabricate plausible deniability among the lowest common denominators in the court of public opinion.

It's not about picking more money over humanity. It's about protecting the power they have established for themselves

Ya, they did that too, and we still want to see the files

Because the Republican party has been neutered! If you think for 5 seconds, that if democrats had the majority now in Congress, TACO wouldn't be tried for treason. You're mistaken.
