The elite have kept the world from progressing to hold on to their wealth. They’ve kept us all apart with their propaganda and gaslighting and stemmed the type of cooperative creativity that could have solved many of our problems a long time ago.

@CelebrateMemory Nope. It’s not. The sooner we embark on the journey, the better.

@StillIRise1963 The world can't afford the rich any more

18+ OWOP,

@StillIRise1963 TWW: … Wealth: is what you acquire from others not freely given.
Prestige: is bestowed to fill your empty vanity.
*You are absolutely spot on, it is incredibly corrupt to have vast wealth while others suffer. This corruption poisons a society’s ideals and results in conflicts unresolved. ‘WinWinWin’ is the key. All that we do can be equitable and balanced without bias or bigotry. OWOP

ReallyBlue2,

@StillIRise1963 not the ‘elite’, that has a bipartisan connotation. It’s the fascist, corrupt right wing elite

@ReallyBlue2 Yes, it does. I meant what I said.

@StillIRise1963 Nothing new. What's new is the entire world planning openly what to do about it.

@megatronicthronbanks Good point. On the bright side, people across the entire world are thinking about this at the same time. I like it. ✊🏾

@StillIRise1963 Elite? Using "generic enemy" is bad. Please provide more specifics. Are you about billionaires? VC companies bosses? or editors of corporate/established media?
Why these people have strong influence ever?
Why we actually care what they say?
Is there a dependency that allows to controlled us?

@koteisaev Nah.

AND they've changed the definition of 'elite' to mean Educated instead of Rich

Let's talk about that!

StillIRise1963,
@StillIRise1963@mastodon.world avatar

@PeachMcD Yep. They did their reverso jedi mindtricks with that word too.

@StillIRise1963 If you've ever studied colonialism, none of this is shocking. They're still using the same divide & conquer tactics but modernized delivery & communications/PR methods. Still same old shit remains, if you dig into the current poop piles.

@StillIRise1963 I've always said, solutions & funds for what citizens really need were always available. The problems were shitty priorities of funds spending & lack of political will. I've been involved with abolish corporate & religious lobbyists grassroots movements for over 2 decades because those lobbyists have huge bribe influences over politicians in power positions.

@StillIRise1963 True, but we need to define "elite" quite specifically to make sure we're hitting someone, and not just putting ourselves in a general "anti-elite" bucket, which gives those elites a welcome mat to defend themselves rather absolutely.

Also, I'm pretty convinced this isn't as deliberate, either that or as populated, as most of us think. (Tossing this around in my head, tho.) People who inherit can be quite dumb about it.

IMO, capitalist propaganda. Yup.

@janisf They went to school. They know exactly what they’re doing.

@StillIRise1963

Lots of people went to school. It doesn't prove shit except that you know how to fill out fancy forms, most of which have instructions in seemingly random places, sometimes only coming from one individual, and you usually have to use your own blank sheets.

There aren't two economists who agree on everything, either.

No, multiple PhDs probably means you know best that you don't know what you're doing. MBA's just want to pay their student loans back.

StillIRise1963,
@StillIRise1963@mastodon.world avatar

@janisf Whatever. They know what they’re doing.

@janisf @StillIRise1963 These people went to Axis of Evil schools like Harvard

@MisuseCase Exactly. Full of Axis of Evil people.

Well, then, try this. https://www.capitalisnt.com/

In the mean time, try to be specific about who you're pegging.
