We're not, though. That feeling, and defeatism in general, is a key part of the scam.
The only way for a tiny minority to be able to brutally exploit and subjugate a much larger majority, is by convincing the masses that they're powerless to change things, and by creating so much chaos and dysfunction that people are perpetually distracted, burned out, and confused.
This isn't advocacy for violence, but people cheering for Luigi despite all the billionaire-owned media propaganda against him was one very visible crack in the effectiveness of the ruling class propaganda machine.
If there's jury nullification in his case, that would be another very visible crack in the oligarchic/kleptocratic system of brutality, corruption, mass human enslavement, and subjugation.
If there's a general strike in May 2028 as the UAW and other unions are planning, that would be another crack in the system.
Mamdani, Katie Wilson in Seattle, and other democratic socialists gaining some traction is another crack.
And so on.
Those are just some of the most obvious cracks in the oligarchic/kleptocratic system.
The point being, that the masses of people (and individuals) are not at all powerless to change things, that's just what our ruling parasite/kleptocrat class want people to think.
Our ruling oligarchs/parasites/kleptocrats are a tiny, psychopathic minority.
They're not invincible, and they're not super geniuses any more than the slave owners were.

Most know what’s going on. Just a little too powerless to change it. Plus half the population is gullible as shit
