    What's disappointed me the most is learning that the entire system, the entire system is built to benefit a very select few at the cost of the health and wellbeing of literally everyone else. It's feudalism under the guise of democracy.

    You can walk it all the way back to 1776 and take a gander at how every person who opposed the idea of a central bank for the new country was silenced on behalf of the landed gentry (most of them -- hell, all of them, former British) with business and wealth interests in Europe.

    I'm not sure the feudal age ever left us, we just have iphones and air conditioning now.

    In case you all were debating taking off the foil hats because of the reccomendation of @kairo

    Vanguard and blackrock own a stupid amount of everything we buy and is disguised as choice and competition

    The American dream died during the coke and machine gun blazes of the 80's

    Property and homeownership are purposefully manipulated to ensure you maintain debt with a two family income and still struggle

    Last and certainly not least, middle class America, same as small businesses, will fluctuate with the ebb and flow of these systems. The people who make up these are disposable and will be the first to hangout to dry when shit goes sideways. Meanwhile, large corporations will not suffer in the same manner or as frequent as the middle class and small business owners.

    Something about post capitalism neo feudalism or some shit.

    And Blackrock is Vanguard's biggest shareholder and Vanguard is Blackrock's biggest shareholder. Funny, isn't it?

    Nah, it's just that most people are comfortable living in their little bubble of a world. It's too unimaginable for most "normal decent folk" to accept that yes, it really is that fucked up.

    But guess who owns the media and controls the education system too ;)

    Homeboy right there busy buying up immense swaths of arable farmland along the mississipi river valley. He knows what's coming. He's part of the "group"

    It's not just Mississippi. He is one of the largest private land owner in the US.

    Yep. Billy G grabbing up the land while Blackrock gobbles up all the single family homes.

    They all have their part to play in what's going to happen next globally, because these people designed the plan lol.

    I hate sounding like a lunatic conspiracy theorist, but there's far more evidence pointing to a "new world order" than against it. Market is gonna crash, there's going to be immense amounts of civil unrest, and then, magically, the billionaires will have a path forward already to go. It's literally the war-economics playbook but modified just a scootch

    The one thing that might put a hurt in it is the tech industry flexing their relatively small billions on behalf of the poors. Wall Street and old money have consistently bent over and manipulated the tech space for profits in both the bull and bear markets, and some of the nouveau billionaires have had just about enough. The tide is slowly turning against the roman emperors. Will it be too little, too late? We'll just have to see, I guess.

    It's really a shame that the average person gives precisely zero shits about any of this. And that's why, of course, they're stuck working long hours at a job they hate to keep buying new cars and feeding their family. 'Tis all by design.

    It's just another way of making people think, "this is what I want to do."

    As you already know and mentioned blackrock and Vanguard snatching up the free markets and packaging choice. However I don't think tech is the white knight it is hoped to be.

    The actions of tech and older money have shown that the lack of response from anti trust and anti monopoly are weak and not enforced leading to very questionable business ethics.

    If we don't have tech, then I don't know what we've got then. I'll just work for another 30 years and die fighting in the water wars.

    Show me any evidence from a credible study showing ill effects from GMO foods. I'll wait.

    As for artificial sweeteners and cancer, I'd rather die from cancer than diabetes. I've worked with both populations just about on the daily for 20 years now, and I've seen who suffers more.

    Here I am just existing purely out of spite. If they could bottle that up and sell it, I'd be immortal.

    We’re in the age of conspiracy man. Everything is a conspiracy.
    Remember that time a there was a “viral outbreak” and it only took “them” less than a year to produce and handout BILLIONS of doses of vaccines. Surely they didn’t have that sitting on a shelf ready to go and they damn sure wouldn’t use it to crash the market and bring the world and all its economies to a screeching halt so they could print trillions of dollars at the blink of an eye all so they could usher in a new world currency….would they?

    Pshhh, nah man, Bill gates just loves computers, biology, and vaccine technology… he wants what’s best for Me and you. Trust me bro.
