No one is, unless they are truly mad. These statements are often based on other commentary, pigeonholing individuals into specific categories, like only having two viewpoints, Blue or Red. But life isn't so black and white. We all desire the same things like peace, security, economic stability, fairness, etc. Each side believes they have the solution, but in reality, neither does. The media manipulates the people into fighting with one other. Stop being sheep and fighting over scraps.

Stop with your enlightened centrist bullshit. This isn't a solution to "peace", "security", "economic stability" nor "fairness".

We are in agreement. I said neither side has the answers. The global elite will not allow the true solution to any of those things. They only want to retain power and occupy the world.

The problem is that one of the sides is the one that doesn't want those things. And are you talking about the bourgeoisie when you say the global elite?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

No, it's not one side wants evil and one side wants good, that's sheep think and exactly what the global elite want. The global elite do not show their face and they control the narrative. They have all their subordinates do all the dirty work so they don't have to take the heat. The bourgeoisie aren't the 'The social class between the lower and upper classes', they are the 1% of the 1% that control the world. Wake up.

"Global elite" is a frequent code word used by anti-Semites, and it means 'Jews'. As this is the 4th time you've used that phrase in this group, where it had never been used before, I'm asking: What exactly are you talking about when you say 'global elite'?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Global, meaning the people in control who live throughout the entire globe. Nothing to do with race or nationality. Simply the ones in power who don't reveal themselves and have others carry out their plan.

Thanks. Can't particularly disagree with that.
