No matter how much they have they still want your money!!
You don’t ‘earn’ a billion. You can’t ‘earn’ a billion.
George Carlin on Billionaires
The Losers……
Being conned by a billionaire!
Billionaires got to where they are through exploitation, not hard work. Isn’t it obvious? No matter how hard you work you cannot earn enough to become a billionaire.
Billionaires get their money from underpaying their workers and overcharging their products. They scam off the hard work of others.
In order to rise to the top they need to be hardnosed and impervious to the repercussions of decisions (the broken people they leave in their wake). The only thing that matters to them is hard cash. This is why people with sociopathic or psychopathic tendencies rise to the top. They either don’t care about the people they hurt or actively enjoy hurting people (the more the better). Narcissists have no doubt that they are inherently superior and more worthy than everybody else. Unlike us they are not beset with doubt.
A majority of politicians, world leaders and CEOs are clinically psychopathic or sociopathic.
Trump displays all the symptoms of a narcissistic sociopath.
How on earth can democracy recover from billionaire take-over?
Social media is the game-changer.
It has become the tool of extreme right-wing fascist billionaires.
Not only are people like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg bankrolling right-wing populists like Trump and Farage and getting openly involved in politics, but they are using their social media platforms to manipulate elections.
By spreading a constant stream of lies, conspiracy and disinformation, undermining experts, opposition politicians and generating fear, distrust and hate, they are actively undermining the very tenets of democracy.
They now use their algorithms to target people and play on their fears. This is brazen psychological manipulation on a massive scale.
By siding with the extreme right-wing evangelical movement, right-wing organisations like the National Rifle Association, climate deniers, vaccination deniers, white supremacists and other conspiracy nutcases, they have forged a conglomeration of lunatics that has become large enough to be electable.
All it took was to raise fears on immigration and racist unease about being displaced, coupled with lies about the economy, to create an unholy alliance.
Somehow they have convinced poor people that billionaires care about them. This is patently nuts. These billionaires are simply greedy monstrosities who are intent on profiteering.
The real problem is not immigrants making people poor; it’s billionaires not paying enough tax. That should be obvious. These greedy profiteers are fleecing poor people.
It is quite shocking the misery they are prepared to cause to make even more money!
The question is – how do we save democracy from these evil people? (and they are evil!)
Definition of Free Speech
The right to tell lies without being called out.
The right to spread conspiracy with nobody to counter it.
The right to interfere in other peoples’ business with impunity.
The right to undermine all experts and scientists without having to provide evidence.
The right to spread hate and division.
The right to promote racism and misogyny without penalty.
The right to undermine democracy.
The right to destroy the very tenets of a civilised society.
Free Speech means the survival of the fittest – the fittest being the wealthiest!
Freedom of speech means the right to exploit, denigrate and destroy what you don’t like.
Free Speech is the rhetoric of bullies, racists, greedy capitalists and corrupt politicians.
Do away with fact checkers. Do away with truth. Free licence for liars, thieves, bullies, thugs, criminals and manipulating profiteering billionaires.
The War on Truth.
Once upon a time we knew where we stood. The mainstream media had a bias (and sometimes made genuine mistakes) but we could read between the lines and had a good idea of what was going on. The money for that army of reporters has dried up. We moaned and griped about the bias of the media but we had a good picture of what was happening. They had highly trained, experienced journalists on the ground investigating and reporting.
Not anymore.
For the past ten years Trump and other populists have been waging a war against experts, science and rational thought. It’s been relentless. They have successfully convinced people that all experts and scientists lie; that they are all in the pockets of either Big Business (Big Pharma) or some shady body they call ‘Deep State’. The only source of ‘truth’ are Trump and the populists.
These populists have one aim – to make money. Nothing else matters. To this end they look after the interests of their paymasters – the billionaires. They want a quick buck out of oil. To hell with global warming or the environment. We can’t allow that to get in the way of making money. Open up the wilderness, remove pollution laws and environmental restrictions. MONEY MONEY MONEY.
They’ve exploited terrorism, Muslim extremism and mass immigration to create fear, hate and division as a vehicle to get them elected.
They use targeted social media to reinforce conspiracy theories and sow the seeds of distrust and fear.
They cunningly exploit the publics own fears and doubts.
Conspiracies are endorsed – Global Warming is somehow a global scam, Covid is a scam, the CIA blew up the towers, we never landed on the moon, the holocaust never happened, all predictions are wrong, scientists can’t be trusted, the election was stolen, Trump’s convictions were all manufactured – a witch hunt. It’s calculated. We are taught to distrust the evidence of our own eyes. Trump’s crowds are bigger than ever before in history. We are living in the age of Orwellian double-think. This time it’s real. We are being orchestrated with a real ‘two minute hate’.
First Musk came out from the shadows to openly embrace the limelight. He used the MAGA movement and is making billions more. He banished fact checking from Twitter. Who needs facts? Under the banner of ‘Free Speech’ you can say what you like, put out lies and blatant propaganda and nobody can question it. The barriers have gone.
Zuckerberg could see which way the wind was blowing and quickly jumped on board.
The rule of law has been bypassed. We are now living in the Wild West where anything goes. It’s a scary place. A handful of billionaires now call all the shots. They manipulate us through their media platforms and, as we’ve seen with Trump, use their money to escape the law. They are effectively above the law.
There is nothing subtle about this. We see with Musk. He has become so brazen that he operates in the open. He seeks a future without any restrictions, where he, and his fellow billionaires, can operate without restriction. Forget workers’ rights, unions, environment or safety regs. This is the Wild West. To this end he is now taking on governments. He doesn’t like any government that has a left tinge. He wants the world governed by right-wing greed. They have their sights on the Labour government, NATO and the UN – anything that might interfere with unrestricted gluttony. Everyone is running scared because they can see the immense power these people have. They control the media. They control minds. They control elections. That power is very real and Musk knows it.
The truth is now what they say it is.
Trump, Musk and Zuckerberg have declared war on facts and truth. The pushback must start now
This is the new world.
The billionaires call all the shots.
The only question really is how far will they go?
How much money does one man need? When is enough enough?
(PS – despite the romantic representation of the Wild West in the films, it was a fearful, ugly, brutal time of death, prostitution, fear and violence. Laws were brought in for a good reason!)
Robbing from the poor to make the rich richer!
They used to run things from behind the scenes!
The billionaires think we’re so dumb they can come right out in the open! They know they can get away with anything. Social media has given them the tool. They control minds. Newspapers and TV was so clumsy!
Now they just buy the MPs and actually tell us they are doing it!!
Who runs this shitshow of a world? The ones who benefit; the ones who are screwing us!
Right-Wing Billionaires – Setting the agenda.
Exploiters and profiteers from the elite swamp look for right-wing politicians to give them tax breaks and business deals. Con the gullible. Convincing the people that conniving snake-oil salesmen have the interests of ordinary folk at heart.
They peddle fear, hate and division to mask their real intent! What they want is your money and to get high on power.
Blame the immigrants.
Blame the Muslims.
Blame the poor.
Always remember – work hard and you can be superrich just like them. (Spot the con yet?)
