The government must be the trustee for the little man because no one else will be. The powerful can usually help themselves — and frequently do.

Speech (1955-10-29), “The Crisis in Agriculture,” Democratic Rally, Duluth, MinnesotaMore about this quote: wist.info/stevenson-adlai-ewin…

"Students boo the commencement speaker who called #Ai 'the next industrial revolution'"
She is 100% right.
What the #hoipolloi don't get is that #Ai *IS* the next industrial revolution.Just like in the past, the working class got destroyed by the #capitalists destroying their labour with machines...
... So now capitalists are destroying "the elites", the intellectuals with AiSo much for class #solidarity
But on the other hand the last industrial revolution brought us #socialism and #communism, so there is hope.

It's going to be one of those "omfg" days.
Kevin Hassett, Director of the National Economic Council of the United States: "If the war were to be extended, it wouldn't really disrupt the US economy very much at all. It would hurt consumers, and we'd have to think about what we'd have to do about that, but that's really the last of our concerns right now."

Yesterday a #Federal judge barred parts of an insane illegal heavy handed and chilling childlike #DJT #ExecutiveOrder targeting exclusively employees and clients of a large influential #DC #beltway #lawfirm he doesn't like.
Known as #PerkinsCoie , the 100+ yr old firm
started in #Seattle and has long represented that region's top tech clients including #Amazon & #Microsoft etc, as well as many other #Fortune500 names .The #RWNJ #HoiPolloi anger at the firm has to do with the fact #PerkinsCoie attorneys helped commission the embarrassing and disputed #SteeleDossier that included allegations against a failed NJ casino operator turned political candidate.who became President TWICE!
The far reaching petty #policestate and draconian #Drumpf overreach would've made it virtually impossible for #employees or any of the 1000+ #attorneys at the firm to do biz in #DC . The order barred firm partners from even speaking to #federalemployees, or to physically enter any govt #property including #courtrooms etc.

@hannu_ikonen @maggiejk @augieray #YUP. The #GoldenCalf aka #ExtremCapitalism aka #Gold aka #Greed has won. Can't have the #Economy go down the tubes and the #HoiPolloi revolt. So - #Greed it is. #Sugarscape?!

“The mistrust of the “#HoiPolloi,” Frank thought, stemmed largely from the tendency of people to credit their own success to a single personal characteristic, which they then “idolize” and use to measure everyone else by the same yardstick.”

@Reddog
“it would be provocative to keep the #HoiPolloi confined to their grimy little streets when there was so much green space just over the wall.” -
@thetyee So1000% true!
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Most of us hoi polloi have no idea we are being robbed blind by the #Oligarchy and its tax breaks given by very well oiled politicians. And then the #Oligarchy blows it on women, fast expensive cars, super-yachts and a dwelling in every vacation spot on earth.

the real issue in #England is rule by #publicSchoolboys - not the smartest ones, but the most arrogant, like #rees-mogg and the execrable #johnson
A society where a #rulingElite are educated, housed, employed and nursed apart from the #hoiPolloi is a #sickNation

@danarail A great read, thank you for sharing. This idea of extracting surplus from us unwashed #HoiPolloi, or #enshittification if you will, is a great analogy for predatory/ #SurveillanceCapatilism.

Bitte nicht. Ich möchte nicht, dass #HoiPolloi [1] entscheidet, wie wir die #Schweiz|er #Neutralität definieren. Da wünsche ich mir #Fachwissen dahinter.
