"It never happened before, therefore it will never be."

That's what people keep saying. And then shit happens, because it always does.

Believing doesn't make a thing real.

But you can get a hell of a lot done because you believe in something.

Choose what you believe in carefully, but you really should choose.

we're still not remotely close of a universal wealth tax

No, but this is a step towards it.

It's unlikely it will happen someday, especially in the current political context.

My brother in Christ, YOU and EVERYONE around you has the power to shift the political context.

And that doesn't mean shifting it overnight. It will take actual effort from you, not just whinging online to other apathetic souls having an "all is lost" collective wank.

You'll have to speak with friends, family, coworkers, random strangers at the bar, and anyone and everyone who'll engage with you about wealth inequality and taxing wealth not work. That's the bare minimum.

Next is organising in your community or at least going to meetings and marches.

Finally you have to more actively engage with political people as an activist.

I'll be the first to admit that I only do the first one, but it sounds like you're not even doing that.

So either start doing that with me and everyone else here, or sit down, shut up, and go back to sucking your thumb and crying in your corner of the internet.
