⬆️ >> Contrary to dark right-wing fantasy, the protesters were there of their own volition — to defend American #democracy out of sense of #patriotism — not in fact because they were being paid by liberal billionaire George #Soros. Ironically, this false claim… been promoted by #Musk, the mega #billionaire who literally pays people to show up at his political rallies, where he sorta-randomly doles out million-dollar checks.

#CivicSolidarity#Cops kept #protesters safe!

“Whole futures are being erased,” Silva said. “Whole fields are being gutted, and for what? To keep the #billionaire class in control while the rest of us are told to be quiet, be polite and stay in line? But we won’t. The statement, ‘Hands Off,’ is our refusal; hands off of our #students, hands off of our #science (and) hands off of our committees.”

Very true. Accruing more wealth than you will need in your lifetime to survive is not just sociopathic. It is also an out of control hoarding disorder.

Notice that 'reality TV' shows pushed by #billionaire manipulated networks frame hoarding by the 99.5% as a mental dysfunction, but if in the .5% of elitism, it frames it as something to admire, celebrate, and pathetically try to emulate (knowing such extremes of wealth are actually ringfenced) like hamsters on treadmills.

Sadly I'm not a #billionaire, cuz otherwise I would've done so and hired people to be able to do so.

  • Instead I'm just gonna continue helping a couple wherever I can…
