> imagine you're in a traffic jam on the highway. a guy overtakes everyone by driving on the emergency lane when suddenly, another person snaps, crashes into the guy's car, and pushes it off the bridge. this is a good analogy for current western society. we have very little to win - there's no longer any social mobility or opportunity, but we do still have a lot to potentially lose: our (relative) comfort, our safety, our liberty. the elite think this is what will stop people acting out while they race down the emergency lane past us but at some point people are going to start to say "fuck it".
