    Late stage capitalism, I did not like that term but since the beginning of last year I started to understand it and read up on the topic. We need to jump into socialism faster!

      Careful not to get too attached to the “late stage” part. Odds are the system will burn everything to the ground and save itself a la WWI/II.

      Amen. A few of us been developing understanding over the last little while. Some might say develiping … class consciousness.

      I was listening to a lecture on meritocracy and how it lead to higher disparities than pre-desegregation black-white divide. The lecturer made the point that there are very few peaceful examples for unwinding the level of inequality that exists today - like the post-Great Depression US under FDR.
