    Ok let me boil down lib thinking “damn, glad i wasnt the one killed”. That’s it, the rest is performative. The reality is the system knows it cant strip everything from everyone instantly because riots will happen so it does so slowly and everyone just nods and goes along with it hoping its not them in the next round of shit.

    Its like how a lot of businesses operate. Lay off x percent of staff where its not enough to tank everything immediately and you have most people sitting there hoping its not them. But when its the person next to them they breath a sigh of relief and pick up their work hoping to not get axed in next years layoffs. As long as its small enough numbers it doesnt matter how many people fall off the bottom over time as long as theres a chance its not you.
