    it’s not “inherently bad”, but the way and scale it happens right now, is - for everyone involved. you can gaslight yourself as much as you want, blaming “demagogues” and “the yellow press” for the bad image, turn around and use the exact same indiscriminating and shallow approach to portrait it as something intrinsic great without seeing the irony in it. and again, it’s fascinating how ppl like you chose to simply ignore the brain drain for other countries and the continuing social and economic downward spiral there because of it because in your opinion it’s “the best solution for many of our problems and also just regular people like us” [citation needed].

      You can be contrarian, project and put words in quotes all you want, doesn’t change that I’m right and you’re slavishly following the default narrative that the rich, the bigots, and the rich bigots are feeding you for their own selfish and often paranoid ends.

      You’ve been had and are trying to spread the rot. Just stop.

        And yet you‘re just spilling phrases, can‘t argue on your own. You point your finger at me and say that I’m „slavishly following the default narrative (of) the rich“ while you‘re just repeating the same corporate speak that once killed the „occupy“-movement, coined by the 1% to divide the working class for good. Tell me: when you‘re pov aligns with basically all mega corps, political parties, celebrities and mainstream news outlets: who‘s the slave of the rich?
