  This is definitely worse than the golden age… Their supporters (conservatives) need to realize it, though.

  And not only do they not use any of their money to improve the world, they actually actively use it to buy up every media platform, prop up right wingers and make as many people suffer as possible. More than they already suffer that is, thanks to a system that allows these pieces of shit to amass enough wealth to last multiple lifetimes while others have to work two jobs and still not earn enough to live without hardship.

  Imagine life was a game. You lived for 2025 years. You worked 260 days / year. You made the median US salary.

  You would need to relive that process 3,145 times to match an Oligarch.

  That amount of wealth is unethical while humanity suffers. No one can really fathom “1b dollars.”

    That movie In Time really goes to show you how much the 1% has, and how little the 99% has. It’s even worse now.

  It’s always jarring to me just how ugly the “superwealthy” are. It’s like their blatant greed and disregard for others can’t be hidden however hard they might try.

  All of this extraction will have dire consequences.

  Just remember, there’s no such thing as infinite growth. These people are just getting better at extracting wealth from us.

      Capitalism is a parasite.

      Humanity when we view nature as equal to us is beneficial to nature.

      But we kinda lost the plot once we thought god gave us the earth to pillage
