The Citizens United Decision Made Corporations = People & Money = Political Speech.
Shall we begin by defining our subject(s)?
We shall.
This is a Brief - 3 1/2 minute - introduction to Oligarchy ...
This is a Very Brief - ONE Minute
- description of the 2010 Citizens United SCOTUS Decision ...
(Corporate 'Crat Hildebeest wants Citizens United repealed? That's Cute
)
Anyway -
Murkuns are now allowed a Choice
between Two candidates pre-selected by the Donor Class.
This is Especially true on the National Level - Prez sElections - but also in elections farther down the ballot.
It makes No Difference which individual candidate/Major Party prevails.
Either Way - OLIGARCHY WINS!! ...
The Oligarchy benefits from 'Crats & 'Publicans demonizing one another
It keeps folks Scared into voting the preselected Plutocrat "Choices" ...
It's why there's an Illusion(!) of dichotomy between the Major Parties.
The system feeds off fear & eliciting emotional responses among voters.
Keep these things in mind when watching political ads & hearing folks talk politics.
It's Fear Driven.
It's not what a candidate will Accomplish
- It's that the opposition is Vile
Not running on accomplishing anything has an Added advantage.
Once elected, the candidate's supporters won't expect much (if anything) from him.
He satisfied his voters' Primary concerns by savin' 'em from the Vile opponent! .
This explains the pre-selected options voters we were given in '16 & now again in '20.
Both are arguably vile & substantial numbers of voters are Damned glad One of 'em ain't Prez!!
I'LL B'LIEVE A CORPORATION'S A PERSON WHEN TEXAS EXECUTES ONE!!
