    Consider how rapidly they have been built, and the capitalists’ plans to make many many more. Now also consider the state of the planet’s ecology and the already terrible effects of climate change.

    To me, it’s incomprehensible that regular people haven’t already revolted against the death spiral the capitalist class has put us on.

      Can you name a moment in time when regular people did stand in solidarity and revolt against something that wasn’t already at the point of causing them grave, direct, unavoidable, and consistent harm?

        Abolitionists are an easy example.

        Now if you mean a majority of people, yeah not really. But people in general, it happens.
