Man... Yeah, you're absolutely right. That really is a matter of perspective.

I think what I struggle to understand is how people can intentionally vote against their own interests under the guise of familiarity. Have people genuinely been conditioned to believe that things that benefit society as a whole, and them as individuals, are somehow detrimental to them personally, while those same policies are somehow detrimental to the profits of large corporations?

I don't know, man. It's difficult to wrap my head around how effectively people can be convinced to work against their own interests.

Humans are terrible.
