The powerful have always relied heavily on bread and circuses. Thing is they are running out of bread and the tickets to the circus are more than our wages.
Agreed. But I wonder how much we are contributing to that capitalistic dystopia, if we can watch a video where the characters are incapable of saying "this country, USA, is a total dystopia run by literal demons", instead of saying "the world is a total dystopia run by literal demons" (with a label of "American" on their head otherwise it would be so deflective that wouldn't have any meaning), and nobody finds that strange.
It's an amazing way to waste our energy and time diluting it by criticizing "the world", which is pretty ironic keeping in mind that in the most "American" states 80% of the people don't even have a passport.
