Title couldn’t say it all
Why in America while the rich get richer millions of Americans are struggling to survive?
“American slavery is necessarily imprinted on the DNA of American capitalism,”
“Given the choice between modernity and barbarism, prosperity and poverty, lawfulness and cruelty, democracy and totalitarianism, America chose all of the above.”
“In order to understand the brutality of merican capitalism, you have to start on the plantation.”
CJ, Are you just trying to get "down" votes ?
What planet is the OP on? Does it have any critical thinking abilities? Societies have been revolving around money forever. You know what societies are true socialists? Those tribal villages deep in the Amazon or Congo still chucking spears. Wanna be like them? Move.
Real historians, even liberals, know the 1619 Project is garbage.
The 1619 project is possibly the mst fraudulent garbage ever emanating from the garbage dump called the NY Times. Sad to recall how important the crossword puzzle in the Sunday Times used to be to my family.

To answer your question:
CJ, Are you just trying to get "down" votes ?
No.
Quotations are used by me as a means of inspiration and to invoke philosophical thoughts from the reader.
Pragmatically speaking, quotations can also be used as language games (in the Wittgensteinian sense of the term) to manipulate social order and the structure of society
“Like everything metaphysical the harmony between thought and reality is to be found in the grammar of the language.”
~ Ludwig Wittgenstein ~ Austrian-British philosopher
~ Born: April 26, 1889, Vienna, Austria ~ Died: April 29, 1951, Cambridge, United Kingdom
Ludwig said it all.
cj just admit it, you're pissed because there aren't any dick pics from the plantations to add to your collection?

Did you notice, no one answer the question?:
Why in America while the rich get richer millions of Americans are struggling to survive?
And everyone appears to accept the fact that:
“American Capitalism Is Brutal”
Everyone knows:
“The United States is Imperialist, and its domestic society is unequal and poverty is rampant...”
We paint over our ugly reality to make a beautiful delusion of self, of society.
We defend this beautiful self and society from our ugly reality with the weapons of denial.
“The best thing about the truth is that once you see it, you can't unsee it.”
“And knowing the truth will make it difficult to still believe the lies.”
"Did you notice, no one answer the question?"
Because it's a bullshit question, and quotes from an agenda-driven newspaper don't make something true?
I'm not struggling to survive. I have stuck with real estate sales for 36 years and keep grinding away. Funny how if yiu stick with something and you work hard you can end up wealthy even if you are not frm a wealthy family. Put the bong down bru
People who work hard and work a lot get richer. People who do one of them survive, people who do neither fail CJ. If you weren't nothing more than a dumb ass cut and paste parrot and had a brain it would be a question that you need not ask. Socialism has succeeded in Europe because they pay virtually zero for their defense, which is funded by the American taxpayer so left wing politicians have a goal to shoot for; that is assuming there is another dumb fuck country on earth willing to pay for foreign losers to live well why we suffer. Socialism is a cancer.
The left wing coordinator of the "justice and poverty project"; a superstar paperboy, oops associate professor, makes up a fake history and the terrible fraud known as the NYT publishes it. Stupid, lazy people struggle to survive in every country on earth. The failed countries think they are special for being losers and failures. The plantation lol; yeah loser nothing happened in the intervening 150 + years lol.
