I'm going to go out on a limb here and say this poster seems to essentially be dog whistling for assassinations.
Look at america for example... a bunch of senile should-be-pensioners are leading the country on basically all levels. Look at EU, a bunch of unelected people in brussles want to break e2e encryption and intruduce private message monitoring.. "for the children". Look at shanghai and their lockdowns. Look at global realestate prices. Look at the profits vs wages ratio.
I mean... something will happen sooner or later, if we want it, call for it, or not.
America is a good example. A country that has a population that is essentially 50/50 divided on almost every single thing. There is no "hey we kicked them out" and now everything is good, it ends in a massive pogrom. The us has elections where we have the option to kick them out every 4 years, the current focus on eroding trust in that process is weakening America and has me more concerned than anything else. Elections provide a way to vent pressure, one side takes over and then the other. Messing with elections and eroding trust in them leads to an increase in that pressure without a vent.
No matter what the revolution, it never leads to utopia, it just leads to another group of politicians. An effective Democracy is the best option. Issue is a ton of people choose not to vote and instead just complain. Its far from perfect but better than the alternatives.
"Look at global realestate prices. Look at the profits vs wages ratio" these are the results of capitalism and while I agree there are some massive limitations to it, it has lifted billions out of poverty and subsistence level living. Perhaps technology will lead to a better solution but right now I dont think we have one and just kicking over the sandcastle is not going to make things better and will very likely make things much much worse.
