Voting Will Never End The Squid Games
Only a bloody revolution will help overturn the grotesque levels of inequality in our societies
I have profound respect for Jessica Wildfire. This comes from having read her work for a few good years on this platform. It is fair to say that she is without question, the most important and relevant author, here.
Why?
Her incisiveness, clarity and readability are indeed second to none. Describing her as the ‘conscience’ in our beloved space is no hyperbole.
But I read her most recent article and I have to say that I violently disagree with the points made as it relates to tackling the profound levels of inequality with which we are grappling today.
Having worked nonstop since I was 16 as a burger flipper, road sweeper, baker, cleaner and in various management roles in retail, while getting my degrees from university (captured in a bit of detail in my articles below), I am convinced that we are doomed to a lifetime of servitude working for the oligarchs in our midst, as they don’t care one bit for our welfare or for our families. All that matters to them are profits and more profits.
