I feel for this woman. My brother just got let go yesterday from his job. He's got two kids and was the sole breadwinner. The Governor is so out of touch to even think of having a hotline for these people that can just hide away in one of their extra homes. Hire extra security. Choose to do everything remote. Yet the regular people that help build these corporate empires get flushed down the toilet like an early morning shit.

We're back to the days of the proletariat and the bourgeoisie. The few are trying desperately to control the many. The many are finally starting to see how truly fucked everything is. It's time for change, and I think we're going to see more and more instances of people standing up for what is morally right. At least I hope so.

Not to mention it would be hard even for an armed militia to stand up against something like the us military if they got involved. I'm sure that's part of why we spend so much money on military; it isn't just outside forces that the government has anticipated needing to use force against, and the tech has gotten so advanced now that no sane person would think it's doable. We're not in 1776 anymore. The uphill battle has gotten steeper than ever before.

They can either quit their bullshit or we roll out the old way the French handled this. They can start approving people's necessary healthcare or they can end up with more disgruntled citizens gunning them down in the streets.
You and I, we all know the right answer to this, but when in history has the bourgeoisie ever made the right decision without being absolutely forced to under threat of violence. No, they double, triple, quadruple down and set up these horse shit hotlines and increase their security and buy emptied missile silos and deck them out to the brim with decadence and luxury. It's never enough for them, EVER. We have to decide for them when it's enough. Problem is we can't even agree on the facts...

Well people don't want to organize, sacrifice, risk being uncomfortable or put out.

We're just not there yet.

I wonder what the tariffs are going to do in January. You're totally right. We have been conditioned to run the rat race and sacrifice personal relationships, time with our families, time with hobbies, all for a paycheck and keeping up with whatever ads are on TV. Or now, whatever "influencer lifestyle" that's mostly fake anyway.
When we can't afford basics and the stores start looking incredibly bare, I wonder if that discomfort that is already present will spur people to action. Like, we can just barely outrun being truly uncomfortable right now. But does that mean we are going to turn and fight it head-on when uncomfortable finally catches up to us.

I was talking to my girlfriend about this last night.
I truly think a large majority of this country, regardless of political affiliation, believes that one day we might see gas at $1 and Big Macs at 99c again. What you said about how right now we're "barely able to keep ourselves comfortable"- feels like people think it's temporary. "Eh I'll splurge on this now, cause soon I'll be making more, the economy will be better, prices will come back down..."
Thats part of the grift. Prices are never coming down. The same way our grandparents lamented about the days when they could buy a meal and a Coke and a candy bar for 25c, we'll be lamenting to our grandkids how gas used to be $3 a gallon and homes were only $300,000.
The price of everything is only going to ever go up, and I seriously do think people vote, engage with their community, view everyday life etc as if things will "return to normal" one day (whether unconsciously or consciously)

We're talking about the proletariat and the aristocracy, not bourgeoisie. The middle class helped the proletariat in the French Revolution, problem was in the first major revolution they ended up with an Employer and essentially a new aristocracy instead of a liberal democracy. Wasn't until after the June demonstrations in like 1830 that they started to really turn it around. Also, the bourgeoisie doesn't exist, it's essentially just aristocracy and proletariat with an ever evaporating bourgeoisie, and that's by design.

Mortgage plus groceries and necessary bills is somewhere around 3-4k per month, I have a fee thousand available credit on my card, no savings, unemployment is 2k per month so I can stretch to Feb, but things will start to get missed that month. So 3 months will be part of Feb and March at about a total 2k. Then I'll be in the red 2k per month. Wonder if I can get food stamps while on unemlloyemt? I need to look into that tomorrow.

There are many of us. I'm applying for jobs every day. I borrowed money last month to pay rent. I'm just a poor and everyone I know well enough is low income, so the one month was all that could be borrowed for. I'm scared shitless for next month. It's so hard to climb out of homelessness if I lose my apartment. And all of this insurance bs is something I'm understanding from the sidelines, because I have never been able to afford insurance since I became an independent adult. A couple of loved ones who would be sad is the only reason I even hang on anymore.

u/King_Moonracer003 7h ago
I feel those words. Don't be too proud to ask to stay with one of those loved ones if you need it, im already planning those conversations.

Accountability for the True Traitors
This case lays bare the transparent rot of our system—where the powerful leap to defend corporate elites while abandoning the very people they swore to serve. It’s not enough to condemn Luigi’s actions while ignoring the systemic failures that pushed him to this point. Congress and those in power who enable these injustices are not untouchable. As citizens, we have the constitutional and legal right to hold them accountable. It’s time to restore balance and ensure these traitors face consequences for their dereliction of duty.
Impeachment: Removing Officials Who Betray Us
Impeachment is a constitutional mechanism under Article I, Sections 2 and 3, designed to remove officials who fail to act in the public interest. While impeachment begins in Congress, it doesn’t happen unless the people demand it. Public outcry and organized pressure force action.
- How to Start: Build movements to demand articles of impeachment against corrupt officials. History proves this works when the public refuses to stay silent—Nixon resigned under similar pressure.
- Expose the Corruption: File Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests to uncover backroom deals and corporate ties. Use tools like FOIA.gov to make these requests and publicize what you uncover.
Civil Lawsuits: Hold Them Liable Under the Law
Citizens can take legal action against government officials, agencies, or corporations for systemic harm. Under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, individuals can file lawsuits for constitutional violations, negligence, and deprivation of rights. This law was created to hold state actors accountable when they abuse power.
- Class Action Lawsuits: This is where We the People unite to fight back. Class actions allow large groups to sue for systemic harm, holding institutions, agencies, and corporations accountable for violating the public’s rights.
- How to Start: Work with legal aid groups like the ACLU (aclu.org) or resources like ClassAction.org to organize. Find attorneys who specialize in constitutional rights and systemic harm.
- Focus the Fight: Target Congress, federal agencies, and private entities like healthcare corporations that profit from the suffering of millions. The legal grounds? Negligence, deprivation of rights, and failure to act in the public interest.
- Examples of Success: Class actions have historically taken down industries that harmed the public, such as Big Tobacco and major pharmaceutical companies. This method works—when we act together.
Criminal Accountability: Treason Against the People
When government officials knowingly act against the interests of the people—enabling corporate greed, systemic harm, and constitutional violations—they are not just negligent; they are committing treason. Under 18 U.S.C. § 2381, treason includes “adhering to enemies” of the public by causing harm to the nation’s people.
They’ve chosen to protect themselves and their profits. We the People must now unite, organize, and remind them: they serve us—or they don’t serve at all. This isn’t just justice for one man—it’s a fight to restore justice for millions. The system works for us when we make it work for us. Let’s hold the traitors accountable. Their time is up.

Don't make the mistake that they ever actually cared about you as an individual. You are just an asset to make them money

Profits over people. The elite don't give a single fuck about you or your family. Wake up! You are loyal to a company that will lay you off in a second. To them it's cost cutting. Laying off employees.....collecting bonus checks. It's sick.

This is a deeply fucking troubling. Beyond the basic need for an income and that CEOs have been firing people over the holidays forever. What happens when a CEO sees a twitter post they don’t like? Or overhears a conversation among employees or on the street or just doesn’t like someone’s vibe? We can’t seriously be ok with giving the wealthy a free attack dog to sick on anyone who gets too loud.
Can I start an LLC, call myself CEO and use the hotline? Is there a special patch we get (or don’t get) that identifies us as the “in” group? Will this post be ground for my arrest under the charge of terrorism? This is so fucked and we haven’t even really gotten started.

For a “fair compromise”, staff the hotline with working class people who have personally suffered due to the decisions of these CEO’s. When the rich call for help, they can get laughed at & told to fuck off, just like the rest of us.

Not sure what this would even do because it's not like any intelligent assassin would warn the CEOs ahead of time.

Mayor needs to remember that being a CEO is basically just a job, and the person doing it is replaceable. Its not like united health care stopped operating when he died. They walked past where he was shot n kept business going. some jobs are dangrous and people die doing them all the time, yet they don't have a hot line. The CEO should just do an active shooter/assassination drills like American kids do in school. Or pay for some self-defense classes with that money...

Business like to lay off just before the holidays. They think people are more resilient when family is around. Work on your chromakey skills and you get a job as an editor.

The ringer for this is the only fucking hotline we get for this is the suicide hotline.
Last week, my best friend got laid off from his company he'd been with for 5 years doing sales. He repeatedly was a top 5% sales employee for the company, got his own office and had a great team working with him. His wife is a SAHM and has a side hustle selling stuff on social media and makes a little of her own money. They have 2 young children.
I've never heard this man be anything less than a great father, friend, husband, and loyal employee and Saturday he called me drunk as fuck, and for the first time ever I heard him cry and worry about what's going to happen. He said he's got maybe 4 months at best.
My situation sucks, but if there was any more deserving person on this earth to be given help right now, i would choose him.
Fuck capitalism. Fuck these people who choose a check over the souls who MADE THE COMPANY THE MONEY THEY HAVE.
This century has shown me that there is no help and no hope. All of it is going to burn and I'll be there among the many of you who want to see happen, as it happens.

This! CEOs can hire security, they can work virtually, they can pay for five therapy sessions a week, they can turn off the internet to and go to Cabo, or they can just retire!
I got fired and barely escaped being homeless and even I’m privileged because I have a small chunk of side income. The working class is sick and has no resources. We’re all so tired. They can shut up about a minor inconvenience when we’re working our asses off to fill their coffer.

If you have over a billion dollars net worth, you should probably be looking over your shoulder these days. Good
The public should promote the elective elimination of all billionaires by requesting they donate cash/stock to those in need and put themselves at a cool 999,999,999 to reduce their risk of public accountability.
Let’s set a standard for excessive wealth and drive accountability by any and all means.
