We break down exactly HOW billionaires borrow against stock to dodge the system, why your capital gains argument doesn't trickle down, and what real reform would actually take.
Then: New York and Atlanta underwater again while Kevin O'Leary drops a data center 2x the size of Manhattan in Utah — over the community's own vote. We get into environmental racism, the gutting of the Voting Rights Act, and why showing up to vote isn't landing the way it should.
And we don't hold back on the Kevin Hart roast — the lynching jokes, the George Floyd joke, and the bigger question: why is racism getting normalized on the mainstream AND the independent internet at the same time? Plus a list of clean music for the kids. 🎵
Who really benefits when the system works exactly as designed? ⬇️
We're hosted on the Perspective Media Network — insightful conversation for Gen Z, by Gen Z.
