I’m always amazed when I speak to people in person how many people don’t believe they deserve more from America and how many more people don’t believe we have the ability demand what we want from this system.

America has conditioned us to believe this.
The hardest step is just getting people to believe that we have the right to demand a better system. Once you get beyond that barrier, they’ll start asking questions about why it is that our system takes so much from us and gives us so little.
If politics comes up at thanksgiving, if they don’t already, ask family why they don’t believe they deserve better. Make them confront their conditioning. Then ask them if they support everyone getting more. If not, y’all have to talk about racism. You’ll be in my prayers 😂
One last thing:

Our system is intentionally designed to extract as much wealth from 327 million people to the benefit of maybe 10,000 millionaires and billionaires.

We have the power to reverse this. The only thing stopping us is how many people are willing servants of the rich
