"surely the institutions will save us" shit who do you think elects the people that run the overgovernment, it's the same fucking confederate filth that elect the regular government, "oh we should have a layer 2 overgovernment that protects us from fuckery by the layer 1 overgovernment" man do i have some bad news for you

Bugs

https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/i-will-not-eat-the-bugs

So "rich people want poor people to eat bugs" is a climate denier conspiracy theorist meme. The OP comic doesn't involve this so it might have been posted in good faith, so I'm gonna be nice and shit, but this isn't great. The gimmick is basically "global elites who eat steak want you to eat bugs, climate science is a pretext to rob you." It's parallel to anti-fuckcars people who hear "dense sensibly designed mixed use, bikes walking etc" and hear "global elites who use private jets want to take your personal car and trap you in your tiny neighborhood for global elite reasons, climate science is a pretext to rob you."

tldr plz no post badguy material

Mayor Mamdani says he has balanced NYC's budget, will not raise property taxes

Reply in thread

it's slightly more complicated than this because actually (source: i dunno half remembered article a few months ago) the city was paying a bunch of consulting money for dumb mbas to say dumb mba catch phrases, and third party business owners to provide public services taking a cut of the money as profit for no purpose from a budget perspective, to which he said "why? no"
