Who is them?

[-] answersplease77@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago

billionares and super wealthy government officials and fossil-fuel execs who get paid too-much-to-say-no to burning the world with you in it

Lookup fascism.

It's anyone "they" convince you is "them".

Don't forget to check out which people use the "Us vs Them" mentality the most :)

Using it to describe the vernacular is different than employing the tactic.

Mussolini, Hitler, and Stalin are all dead.

Trump is very much alive and kicking

Why is it a safe way to describe it? Just because you deem yourself on the "right side" doesn't make the mentality any less dangerous.
