A Republic Without a Public

The United Slavocracy is a republic for the 0.1%. It's a despotism for everyone else. Slowly, ever so slowly, the reality is seeping in. To my fellow corporate serfs who still have a job and money: don't worry, you'll be joining us debt-chattel in the poorhouse soon enough. For the next eight years (this slightly dented brain can see no further), every dawn will be the brief intermission between the insupportably awful and the still worse yet to come. It's called capitalism. Either we end it worldwide, or it will end the world.
