and to the end the rich has propaganda to convince some of the poor ones that they are poor because of “other” people are making them poor and not the rich, add in other things like lgbtq+, wokeness, women, abortions.
There is a kind of compromise
You are master of
Your endless gentle nudging
Left us polarised
It's hard to talk to enemiesAnd we are enemies
What we had in common
Makes it even worse
You're proud of being middle class
Meaning upper class
You say you're self sufficient
But you don't dig your own coal
I think that what you're frightened of
More than anything
Is knowing you need workers
More than they need you
The poor have no need of the rich, but the rich could not exist without the poor.
Musk: But I’m Atlas, holding the world on my shoulders! The poor would starve if I shrugged!
He’s been shrugging and the poor have been starving, so maybe it’s time for something different.
