I wasn't going to engage, because lets be honest, there's no point, but I happened to scroll past these the other day, and you've given me a good opportunity to use them, and others might enjoy, so:

"but if we don't have the statemurder squad, who will fill out paperwork after my house is robbed and laugh when i ask will i get my stuff back"

It is a privilege to think the police will protect you

bootlicking noises

So... Both countries involved?

Homelessness doesn't exist because of a lack of housing.

Social mobility just works in both directions, and about as often.

Yeah, no, that's a massive streaming pile of self soothing bullshit that isn't convincing anyone but you.

Let’s say that you have an opportunity to gain billions to fix the society from the top.

Society can not, and never will be, fixed from the top.

Nor is money the solution to our problems, if anything, it is a huge part of the cause (and why communism aspires to a moneyless society, among other things).

So even if I say I'd only accept the money if I could instantly redistribute it, as long as other billionaires, and the systems that create and uphold them, exist, my personal actions would probably make little difference in the long run, and any money I shared would end up right back in their pockets (by virtue of how capitalism works).

Thanks for the heads up.

OP - my feedback is fix this.

The only way to stop them is to abolish the systems and institutions that enable their existence in the first place, and ~~eating~~ removing them from society (unless they agree to give up their ill gotten power and resources, of course. As if).

Anything else is a distraction created by those maintaining said systems and institutions (which includes the governing bodies of all nation states, as well as organisations like the EU*, as noble as the idea is in theory, and in practice in the minds of those who created it, but it is after all an economic treaty, which is upholding an economy system and the status quo) all to buy themselves more time to pillage, hoard, and manipulate society for their personal gain.

*As a brit I feel compelled to say that I'm pro EU under our current system, since our shitty government(s) must have someone to answer to (because it sure doesn't answer to the people), but I'm fully aware that it is at the end of the day a neoliberal institution that is there to maintain the status quo, not change anything fundamental to better society.

I'm expecting the DWP to instantly adopt whatever AI it is that that insurance company that recently lost its CEO uses to deny claims. And all I can do is hope that they, and those enabling them, get a similar response (though who am I kidding, if the general public gave two shits about poor and especially disabled people being deliberately and systemically denied support and left to die, we'd have seen a reaction a decade ago).

Hate to make you cry a little more, but it's £14 billion, not million
