If this is upsetting and you want examples . . . I dunno . . . read a book? David Harvey’s brief history of neoliberalism a great place to start but this isn’t a wild claim to make so if you’re upset maybe broaden your media diet a bit?
Not to be weird but aspects of the neoliberal project, that’s been built and supported by the Democratic Party, have eradicated many of the mechanisms by which the people are able to form and exert political pressure. And this was on purpose. And now we’re screwed.

Have you seen #TheKingTide (2023)? Photographed beautifully by Mike McLaughlin, it takes place on an island, where a boat w/a baby washes up, the baby blessed (or cursed) w/the ability to heal. The child grows into a preteen (performed evocatively by a 12-yr-old Alix West Lefler).
Check it out.

Calling out #ElonMusk for throwing two Nazi salutes is not ableist. Saying that folks with autism accidentally throw Nazi salutes because they don’t know any better or - what? - are so bad with fine motor skills that they inadvertently lay down a brace of Sieg Heils? That’s ableist.

PSA: #Oligarchy means "rule by a small group,” from the Greek "oligoi" (few) & "arkhein" (to rule). A nation ruled by 10 hobos is an oligarchy.
#Plutocracy, OTOH, means "rule by the rich,” from the Greek "kratos" (authority) & "ploutos" (wealth). The more precise term for the US today: plutocracy.
