    The true dispair is knowing that the ones primarily responsible for the issues we are facing (private jets, mega yachts, hundred million dollar properties, etc.) are completely untouchable by us.

    We just get to watch in horror as our world decays and the rich get richer.

      I mean, they’re quite literally not, though. All it takes is luck, firepower, and someone willing take out Taylor Swift.

      I’m sure it will have to get one fuck of a lot worse before people in that tax bracket catch it from their own security, but if enough people are self-sacrificing for long enough, they may even have to outlaw guns or something. Which would at least give my wretched corpse a chuckle.
