Fri Nov 28, 2014, 02:13 PMStar Member riqster (11,966 posts)An open letter to America’s 1%: you had better hope violent protesters stay stupid.https://bluntandcranky.wordpress.com/2014/11/26/an-open-letter-to-americas-1-you-had-better-hope-violent-protesters-stay-stupid/Nothing whatsoever else at the link today. Just a rant. It’s become a cliche': oppressed people get pushed over the edge, riot, and trash their own neighborhoods. Those in government and media who are not from the oppressed class pontificate from the comfortable safety of their communities. So it goes, again and again. Ferguson today, Watts yesterday, and no doubt somewhere else tomorrow. Of course, it is stupid to foul one’s one nest. But angry people often do stupid things. And that angry idiocy is the oppressors’ BFF; in fact, that anger is the product of said oppression. So, you in the 1% (aka the oppressors): whatcha gonna do when the rioters get a clue and stop burning down the slums and decaying suburbs to which you have confined them? When they realize that their destructive impulses could better be directed away from those who are scarcely better-off than themselves? When they learn to focus on the real enemy? Because, trust-fund turkeys, that enemy is you. You are the greedy motherf***ers who have bought the government and by so doing have robbed the rest of us blind, binging on your wealth while millions starve. You are both the cause and effect of inequality, and are completely dependent on its continuance. And like many oppressors, you fail to see how precarious your position truly is. Someday, it will happen, as it always has and always will: the foolish will see the error of their ways and will choose a new path: in this case, towards your neighborhoods, your homes, and your businesses. The flames will not stay confined to the dwellings of “those people†forever. Don’t believe it? Ask Marie Antoinette, or perhaps the Romanovs…oh…wait…you can’t ask them, can you? Because they got killed by those they oppressed, didn’t they? And like you, they thought it couldn’t happen. Want to avoid that seemingly inevitable fate? Stop being a bunch of short-sighted, self-absorbed greedheads and start paying attention to the plight of those whose fortunes and futures you have stolen. Their present needn’t become your future, but it most surely will if you don’t smarten up yourselves. Because while it may be stupid of them to burn down their own neighborhoods, it’s even dumber for you to incite them to burn down yours.

I have been extremely surprised that rioting or vandalism has not taken place at rich homes andbusinesses already. And I am not talking about black rioters doing it. There are a lot of angry people in this country including teabaggers. Than no one has hit out at the corporations is amazing.
riqsterSo... oppressors: whatcha gonna do when the rioters get a clue and stop burning down the slums and decaying suburbs to which you have confined them?... When they learn to focus on the real enemy? Because... that enemy is you.

If they were that frickin' oppressed, we'd have a welfare budget that was a negligible little sliver of the total, instead of one that acts like Godzilla in the Tokyo subway switching yard.
Personally, I think some real oppression might do some of the DUmmies some good. The others we'd have to beat to get them to work.

Which upscale 1%-er neighborhood would that be?Sharpton'sKerry's?The Kennedy compound?Nancy Pelosi's?Clinton's?Soros'?Buffet's?Jesse Jackson's?Feinstein's?If it's the neighborhood of all those 1%-ers that keep telling you to give them more control so they'll make your life easier without you having to work for it I would support you but, as you noted in your title, you're stupid.

Ted Kennedy is the only person with an actual confirmed kill in the war on women.
