   @Daojoan When was it alive, exactly? At the time of the Native American genocide? During slavery? During Jim Crow/segregation? Because it seems to me like it was at most a summer or two in the 1960s, maybe?

     The American dream didn't die.

     That makes it sound like a natural event.

     Like it was inevitable.

     Here's the truth:

     It was fucking murdered.

     By greedy, unchecked corporations, bought and paid for politicians, and every coked-up asshole on Wall Street.
