@0c59af14 @134318c2 this is what shocked me most even before I started living in the US. it was during 2008 and I realized the evil behind manufacturing consent behind "too big to fail" bullshit. People had to stay silent when literal thieves got bailed out with their money because some PoS managed to convince everyone that it is not just ok but good to gamble with their life's earnings. Mind blowing.
