If enough people stop paying rent, then they have to negotiate with them as a group. They can't evict everyone.

Snitches get stitches. Unless someone is hurting people, I ain't seen nothing.

This attitude is all that's left when you spend almost a century creating a culture that tells people to stop valuing their neighbors.

America spent a century burning all the other baskets and demanded that everyone store their eggs in the American Basket™. All resistance was met with violence openly or covertly.

While I have no interest in this movie and I think Gal Godot sucks, banning movies is akin to banning books.

I find that hard to believe. Universal healthcare is the most popular policy proposal in the US for the voters. 60+% of Americans support it.

Also, there has been numerous studies done in the last 15 years that show that voting doesn't get popular policies passed. If the rich want something, it is more likely to get passed whereas if the average voters want something, it is unlikely to get passed.

Obamacare, the multiple times in 2016, 2020, and 2024 when they were deciding on a platform and universal healthcare never made the cut. They've had plenty of opportunities to push it and they never do.

Yeah that's the biggest problem is I can't guarantee the revolution would be leftist or that the emerging system would be better than our current system. We need to build a leadership system now.
