And the only thing to break the cycle is that one day you'll die.

What an unbelievably shitty society we've built. We could set it up to work any way we wanted, and this is what we settled on.

you know we can change it, right? organize and protest y'all

A noble sentiment, but I think I'm being realistic when I say change on that scale simply isn't going to happen anytime soon. Things are bad, but not bad enough you're going to get a protest big enough to bring change going.

I wish it wasn't this way, but the stacks been getting stacked against us for too long now.
