The best we can hope for is some development of class consciousness as the public sees plainly the two-tiered justice system that ignores the extreme wrongdoings of the ownership class. Then we can work towards a society in which there is a narrower gap between the wealthy and the impoverished, and there are mechanisms to keep anyone from amassing too much wealth or political power. Until then, civilizations will rise, rot from within and collapse has they have historically, over and over and over again.

Nothing will happen until people stop pretending violence is not a tool to be used. It is one the state uses against the working class, and it is one the working class has conceded under the delusion of voting away the owners in the system they own. Nothing short of violent revolution will end this.

Jury nullification in ALL criminal trials, until the Epstein class is behind bars. Shoplifters, drug dealers, even murderers and rapists. All should go free, all should get ‘not guilty’ verdicts, regardless of evidence. Until the “justice” system applies to the rich and powerful, it shouldn’t apply to anyone.

I've pretty much come to the conclusion that any lasting change like that will not happen in my lifetime. This is all we have ever done, it is presumably all we will ever do, failing alien invasion or a mass extinction event. And while global warming is shaping up to be the latter, I doubt the wars over water and food will suddenly turn their attention to billionaires and do something about them; it will merely slowly escalate and get worse while they gaslight the majority that everything is business as usual, until one day we wake up and all these assholes have fled into their doomsday bunkers.
