Hello,
All throughout the internet, and indeed much of society in different countries where I have engaged with folks, many share at least a very general sentiment that is in one way or another connected to anti-capitalist, or anti-corporatist, anti-neoliberal, anti-work sentiments – but in pretty much every country, every election, come election time, neoliberals win. No one who wants a total reform of the global economic system – which keeps making the rich richer – comes close to winning. Sure some more left-leaning parties sometimes win or come close to winning, but all are still fully neoliberal, just with extra social justice policies (if they keep their promises even on that).
I have joined a local party/groups who have candidates/leaders that may agree that the system is corrupt, but they are far from winning elections and even if they did, again their proposed changes don't go near far enough. As long as society is ruled by corporations and the banking sector people will continue to be exploited, and the status quo will remain.
My dream would be a world-wide protest to bring down the banking sector, dismantle corporations, re-organize the entire philosophy and system behind how labor is used to keep civilization running and advancing. One based on much more equality, fairness, and justice. I have written a project on that, but more than anything else it's discussions I want to have with like-minded folks who are willing to organise such a global, or at least regional protest.
I do feel like at least aspects of this goal/vision are shared by a lot of people, but after years and years of searching I just can't find any centralized collective that can or wants to see this realized. The sentiment seems so fragmented among so many political or socio-economic groups and movements, a good number of which oppose each other on other grounds…and of course, that's how the top 1% and the rich elites keep winning elections and staying in power.
Appreciate any thoughts/insights/directions.
