I guess man. Im not convinced anyone with any power knows how to do anything like that anymore, we’re like two generations out from the actual capitalists that ran this place.
I feel like once you start fucking with serious amounts of money some competent rich people who’s names you’ve never heard of cuz they’re smart enough to stay off Twitter start coming out of the woodwork.
That’s what’s so “exciting” about the present moment. With Trump valuing blind loyalty above all else with his cabinet appointments, will he actually be able to make the bourgeois state dominant over individual bourgois interests? That is the ultimate goal of fascism, after all. They will elevate the dominance of the ruling class systemically, by overriding capital’s preferred methods of state control.
It’s not people though, it’s a social structure: a set of systems and rules with no one person in charge that, once broken, is very hard to put back together again.

maybe. i don’t know how they can be competent if they were effectively handed the money as a birthright though.
like i understand the fear, but i think we’re overestimating what’s really going on there
Idk maybe their weird rich fathers put them through some kinda rigorous training before they gave them the money.
If that’s what you want to call minoring in binge drinking at Yale go off ig
It’s more like joining a weird cult in Yale that ritually humiliates you, but also binge drinking
Yeah, the real money that runs the capitalist world is people who we likely have to search out their names and learn very little about.

That is the core, yes. But there are some really shitty ones out their that like their privacy and have a very high degree of influence.
Ill believe it when I see it. All the ones that appear to have any power are hard to describe without using an ableist slur
