The plot: insidious creatures in search of ultimate control convince everyone that they are shameful and try to suck out their souls.
Is it Kpop Demon Hunters or billionaires in 2025 USA?

"Unfortunately, corporate media can’t seem to even whisper the name of the most obvious third-party target for a DOJ criminal charge: the largest bank in the United States, JPMorgan Chase, with a storied history of money laundering; five previous DOJ felony counts; and client relationships with Epstein’s two major money men – billionaires Leslie #Wexner and Leon #Black – both of whom have ties to Israel, as did Epstein."

I just learned something - commercial #US #airline passengers subsidize private jets’ use of #FAA air traffic control systems. Basically, the #billionaires have an annual $1B shortfall to make up to us.
Sadly, I don’t think #Congress has the courage to fix it at this time. But maybe #Democrats should also run on this? Who knows what could happen after a #BlueWave?

#propaganda is programming #civilians over #emotions, not facts. Obviously, @rbreich is aware of that and avoids to mention numbers of #billionaires donating to so called “democratic” arm of the #uniparty.

"Imagine there's no #billionaires
It's easy if you try
No hell around us
Above us, only sky
Imagine all the people
Livin' for today
Ah
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too
Imagine all the people
Livin' life in peace
You
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one"

"So on the one hand, this is all pretty dismal. It also makes the trend towards electing anti-democratic politicians who want to abolish elections a lot easier to understand: if you (correctly) believe you live in a world where politicians don't care about you, then why not vote for a strongman who'll punish your enemies and maybe leave you with a few more crumbs?
But on the other hand, this is very exciting, because it shows us what a truly democratic world would look like (and just how different that world would be from the billionaire astroturf-dominated social media world)! If the popular will can achieve primacy, we would live in a veritable paradise!
It also explains how candidates like Zohran Mamdani were able to clobber the political establishment simply by a) telling people that he would do popular things; and b) convincing them that he meant it.
Suppressing popular preferences in (nominal) democracies isn't easy. It requires absolute unity of the ruling classes. Whenever the faintest crack appears in capital's unity, good policies gush out of it. That's what's happened with antitrust this decade, where the divisions between billionaire rentiers like Apple/Google and the millionaire capitalists who want to escape their 30% app tax has allowed a rush of effective antitrust enforcement to sweep the world, to the detriment of both:"

AIs are not going to save the world, or change it for the better. They are only there because they will work for #billionaires more cheaply than humans do. Everything today is *FOR PROFIT*.
#AIs will not save us. We need to do that ourselves.
