I pledge allegiance to the flag of the Corporate states of Amerca, and to the Republicans for which it stands, one nation under debt, easily divisible, with liberty and justice for *Oil!*
*FREEE*

Crazy to me how some people have enough money to last them a lifetime 100x over yet they still find a way to be greedy

[rubenrichardson]

It’s crazy how wanting livable working conditions, agency over your life, affordable quality goods is considered extremist nowadays. The reality is that our lives revolve around work, we must rest to recuperate for work, use our weekends to take care of errands and maintain our basic functions, spend our free time commuting to and from our jobs leaving very little time for our personal lives, meanwhile our dollars that we work for buy less and less as corporations price gouge and lower product quality meaning our belongings need to be replaced sooner and sooner, we’re losing ownership rights for homes, movies, tv shows etc. as they either become unavailable or unaffordable.

This all just feels so surreal. I literally feel like I'm watching a movie about USA turning into fascism and my subconscious brain just simply can't comprehend it's happening for real. How can people be so blind they don't see what's going on? I'm starting to understand now how Germany could become the Nazi Germany, I can imagine how hopeless the normal people must have felt.

A lot of people believe that 2012 was the tipping point... but it was really 1980!

"Hey there, how do you end up in hell?"
"I don't know, I didn't do anything wrong in my entire life"
"Where do you work?"
"The Heritage Foundation"

[darthdangermouse]

I lost it when Reagan showed up, holy shit, that man truly is responsible for a lot of bad shit in the US...

[marebear-]

Being a socialist in the US is frustrating for many reasons. Where is our playbook? What are we doing? How are we organized? Don't get me wrong I'm not supporting heritage or reps in the slightest, but I think leftists need to understand what we're up against and truly mobilize.

[craven]

Man. I'm only 25 and the thought of big CEOs panicking over making less money because they're being required to treat their employees with basic human decency is so alien to me. They just get away with not doing that now.

I watch a lot of different political based channels & I gotta say the production value of Second Thought is very well put together. Its not all jumpy with the transitions & I appreciate that. Very calm, very information dense. Its the french toast of channels

I am moving to Japan soon from the US and need a dental crown for my teeth. The procedure is $2000 without insurance, $550 with GOOD insurance. In Japan, the same procedure without insurance is $600, with BASIC insurance is around $100 for everything. The US charges 4X as much for the same thing. It makes no sense.

[etep]

How does America become completely fascist? Slowly at first, then suddenly.

[chrisisapracticalmess]

It always amazes me that capitalism and conservatism go hand in hand. It started out as a corporate manifesto that somehow became entangled with Christianity. It's almost as if Christianity was a business, a form of control. Money and religion. Religion and money. Both used to control us.

[emiebex]

Project 2025 is basically The Handmaid's Tale, The Book 1984, & The Lorax all rolled into a single Book. 🙅🏿‍♂️🙅🏽‍♀️📕

[baribari]

unfortunately the heritage foundation isn't dying down anytime soon. plenty of millionaires and billionaires have profit to make from it, as you greatly put it here. excellent video as always.

[hotxed]

I can't believe just recently i found your channel, when you say you're being depressed, you're not over stating it. Thanks for all your work

[jcleaverchamberlinjr]

remember folks: Socialism is the movement of hope. Fascism is the movement of despair

[rooster]

Your videos make me feel more and less insane every time 😂😭

[ujean]

Yet another critical video that needs to be seen by every working person in the US. Extremely important - must see.

[Diskhate]

Being european i feel so borderline useless seeing things like this take place, knowing that at this point we are pretty much an american proxy.. and that what will happen over there, sooner or later will happen here in one form or the other.
