this isn’t a meme, this is slop

do you genuinely believe that the political landscape is even close to how it was during the civil rights era? the world has changed a little bit in half a century and the papers that reported on MLK and X are owned by the same folks who called for their murders.

Then aim to get onto the major channels with the Spokesman.

??? why would generational wealth give air time to the person calling for its redistribution? rogan came up through independent channels and they bought him (or rather, his audience). what’s stopping your “great spokesman” from being paid for just like joe?

you’ve proven my point here: plenty of these people exist, you just haven’t heard of them! outreach is expensive and any time a signal starts to get picked up, the noise machine works overtime to drown it out.

What we need is a spokesman, who can navigate and sell the situation to the public.

you’re close, but the problem isn’t finding a spokesman, it’s finding a platform that can reach the people they need to reach. idk if you’ve noticed but the general public is not hanging out on lemmy, and the vast vast majority of the public’s attention is owned by corporations and therefore by the billionaire class.
