You know what's hard if not almost impossible to find? Someone who thinks outside the box; can SELL what's outside the box to enough people that matter; and, LEAD those people into a better reality than the one they already have. Calling people lackeys and insulting their current reality is NOT a good start.
What is it you are talking all around and not saying? You're selling WHAT exactly? WHO are the "rulers" and/or "upper class"? I would say both would be determined by one's position in life/society, no? You have to have a dividing line. Who is "us" and who is "them"? You say "we" outnumber "them".
Are you claiming to be a "have not" that wants what others have? When you get it, and you can live just like them, what have you become? One of them. If you aren't going to be like"them", what is the point of taking what they have? I don't see one.
Then there is the fact that like ot or not and resent them or not, they DO have the power. They own the law. They own the machine. Idealism doesn't count on a battlefield. Casualties do. IF you become enough of a threat, they WILL kill you.
In your words so far, you represent resentment and envy, and think bullying to get what you want -- which is what "they" have -- is the answer. Running on emotion might win you a battle, but it cannot be sustained long enough to win a war.
Feel free to clarify/answer my questions.
