It is people in and around this cohort of the American population, these roughly 10,000 people with net worths, more than what any of us will ever see in our lifetime. These are the people who are setting policy and driving society . And the reason why these people are allowed to flourish dates all the way back to policies that have been put in by the Reagan administration.

le class and the lower class [:

Think about every crisis that has happened since the Reagan administration. In every crisis, the net worths of the millionaires and billionaires continue to grow up and climb while the rest of us, the 99% are left. Wrecked in the aftermath. And this, the failure to connect the dots between tax policy, economic policy, and bailouts, and the impact on the widening wealth gap is one of the big reasons that the Trump regime has risen to power.

ery billionaire is evil and. [:

When we're talking about a fundamental reordering of society, billionaires should cease to exist. They should be taxed out of existence, and their wealth should be redistributed across the globe to solve some of the most pressing problems that exist today. When we look at the conflicts that are happening all across the globe.

he word terrorist is used is [:

You see this happening in Africa currently. Where there's a realignment going on in Africa where many African countries are moving away from the west and are also consolidating their power with the interest of having their economies be developed through their natural resources. The current power structure in terms of how the world is organized has.

Has the global south being the source of raw materials for the West. And when you see Asian countries and African countries state that they no longer are gonna play by these games, you see language popping up where these countries are labeled terrorist havens.

in extracting as much wealth [:

how do we do that, there needs to be a 90% tax that is levied on the income of w billionaires. There needs to be a 90% wealth tax

implemented to these billionaires. And what is interesting is that all of these billionaires have convinced everyone else that if we give them more tax cuts, we'll be better off. We've seen that hasn't worked over the last 50 years, so obviously the solution is to do something different and that is what needs to be done.

a hundred million are truly [:

Are two specific companies that I think deserve some extreme scrutiny.

What we've seen over the last several months since this regime has taken over has been the mass mobilization of mass. Traffickers hitting the streets and kidnapping people in broad daylight. That initiative has been driven by Steven Miller's policy, but there are two companies and their CEOs that we need to pay attention to that are the tips of the spear when it comes to putting into place the mechanism for ethnic cleansing that is happening right now.

ivate prisons. These are two [:

we need to understand the roles that Damon Inger and J David Donahue play. These two are the CEOs of these two companies, and when we put it into a historical context, these two companies and their CEOs are no different than the people that were running the gas chambers and concentration camps in Nazi Germany. These two people, and these two companies are in the business of extermination for profit.

ies from within and the evil [:

Exterminate brown and black faces all across the country and all around the world. And let's not forget, when we talk about the two CEOs that run these companies, when we move away from the billionaires that need to be put on trial in a Nuremberg style fashion, the next in line should be the CEOs of these two companies. Because they are literally being paid and getting bonused on how many people they can traffic off of the streets of the US and put into Gulags never to be seen from again. These are people that need watching.

ntory of all of these things [:

As always, when it comes to this regime and the Republican party, it's always about projection.

Whenever they accuse somebody of something else, it is stuff that they're doing. We've seen this over and over again in the data. They point the finger at immigrants being violent and dangerous criminals. All the while.

ren ? White Christian males. [:

What that indicates is a pattern. This is a pattern of behavior within this group. If we're really gonna be serious about the enemies within. And we're really gonna be serious about reorienting society in a way where we can have progress. There needs to be a massive effort at de magnification of the us.

in the thirties, forties, in [:

The calls that keep going out for middle ground and compromise are a waste of time. There is no compromise with these people. There is no compromise with people who fundamentally believe that unless you're white, Christian, and male, you do not have a right to exist. These are not people that can be reasoned with.

These are not people that can be debated with. They need to be shunned, ridiculed, and ignored, and they need to be completely stripped away from the levers of power so that they can no longer do damage. That is what needs to be done, and the sooner we can do it, the better off we'll be.

start, no meaningful change. [:

Every one of these companies that are supporting this regime needs to feel it in their pocketbooks. Walmart is starting to see it. Target is starting to see it. You're seeing all of these companies start to see it, and that is where we need to go to next. We need to continue what we're doing from a protest perspective, [00:12:00] but we need to escalate the boycott and withhold financial support to any and every company that backs this regime. And let's be clear, if you're in the group of companies that is saying nothing, you're on that list too. Those organizations that receive our support in terms of economic support and commerce need to be the ones that are vocally standing against this regime.

You can't be a bystander. None of us are bystanders in this, and until we recognize that we hold the power and we cut off the purse strings of these organizations, nothing's gonna change. So these protests are a good start, but if we really want to eliminate the evil that exists within this country, maga.

And their business interests need to be crushed.
