Seems more like a world where everyones fucking dead at the rate things are going. Then again if we’ve learned anything in recent years its that other than manipulation skills most billionares are fucking idiots.
They could have a bunker on 400 hectares with a lifetimes supply of food and water and unlimited creative projects and it wouldn’t be enough. They have to be “worth” a bigger number than the other person. It’s a mental illness.
Having played cookie clicker I understand the appeal of number must go up, but as a human being with empathy I think when you can do some Scrooge McDuck swimming in money shit maybe look for a way to use that money to make a positive impact on the world.
The entrenched neoliberal post-Cold War consensus is cracking up.
But anyone who told you that the Reagan Era global order wasn’t authoritarian sold you a box of rocks.
Upper middle class Americans are getting a taste of life outside the bubble. This is what “democracy” has felt like in The Philippines and Brazil and Ferguson, MO for some time.
They are using their essentially bottomless pit of money, influence, and resources to shape a world where they are permanently definitively on top.
When were they not? Do you think the folks fucking kids on Epstein’s Island twenty years ago weren’t doing the exact same thing?
When you snip away the social safety net, drop the illusions of “friendly neighborhood police officer”, and abandon any effort at mitigating the ecological consequences of capitalist expansion, this is what you get.
All corners of the world.
Authoritarianism is spreading like wildfire across the globe because the rich and powerful want to remain rich and powerful.
They are using their essentially bottomless pit of money, influence, and resources to shape a world where they are permanently definitively on top.

They don’t care if we’re dead. They care about making an essentially endless supply of money endlesser
I’ve never seen someone make the idea of a billionaire so stupid in one sentence. Kudos

It’s not just being on the top. Their wealth guarantees they’ll live in a different cast to the end of their lives.
At this stage, it’s a compulsive need for hoarding more and controlling everyone else, as they strongly believe their wealth entitles them to do so.
This is an oligarchy regime.
