And the logic of the system prevails.

It continues to boggle my mind how people don’t understand that market dynamics are literally the blueprint of class war.

Capital becomes irrelevant.

From reducing pay and firing people so stock portfolios go up, to the most obvious contradiction of the system — replacing humans with cheaper, more productive mechanization.

You really couldn’t think of a more cartoonish system to perpetuate social conflict, anger, and warfare.

A system of global economics based on competitive market trade. Because all market trade is competitive. A system based on scarcity exploitation. Because there’s no point in having a market if there isn’t some form of scarcity by which you capitalize.

And the implications are so far-reaching they boggle the mind once again. There will never be environmental balance. There will never be peace. And the whole society is going to blow itself up one way or another as long as the machine remains.

So while the activists run in circles angry at this billionaire or that corporation — remember — the system is the system is the system. All of the subjective points of anger and moral appeal are just an illusion in the end.

There is only one kind of activist that matters in the world today: the anti-market activist.

Are you for animal rights? Then you need to be against the market.

Are you for political equality? Then you need to be against the market.

Are you for the sanctity and welfare of children, limiting their suffering and abuse? Then you definitely need to be against the market.

Are you against the socioeconomic inequality and poverty that kill billions prematurely each year? Then maybe, just maybe, you need to be against the market.

Are you against male domination and the tradition of patriarchy? The market is what holds it together, remember?

You could list anything in the comments with respect to the spectrum of social and environmental activism, and I can show you how the market is either at the core of the problem or perpetuating it on the most visceral level in the modern age.

Even religion. Because the market religion is far more dangerous than every absurd superstition out there. Islam, Christianity Judaism Hinduism and all the other lunatic theistic belief structures don’t hold a candle to the delusion and destruction of market economics.

The United States is an imperialist empire.

The United States government is the worst government in human history

The Trump administration and the rich conservative majority in a nutshell.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. talked about this all the time. You create social stability by ensuring that poor whites and poor blacks always feel like they have to be at war with each other, and nothing else… and since Black America is firmly aware of this, you keep triggering poor white people and make them feel like the reason their life sucks is because of DEI and other truly appropriate civil rights corrective measures.

The entire “oppressed white male” rhetoric that dominates the southern United States is rooted in this fundamental manipulation.

Because the true conflict is not racial whatsoever (at its root). It is the haves and the have-nots. Or more importantly – it’s the psychopathic rich people that wanna control everything versus everyone else.

There’s always one surefire way to p**s most people off in modern culture:

Emphasize the role of being informed, being thoughtful, and the importance of caring about something other than yourself or immediate surroundings.

There’s nothing that invites hatred more than reminding people what narcissistic, ignorant degenerates most of them are.

If you want to test this theory, just go up to the next person you see bragging about their sense of personal accomplishment and ask them what they’ve done for somebody else recently — emphasizing that we live in a society where one’s material success instantly translates into somebody else’s loss.

Pareto efficiency.

Remind every well-to-do person you know that they are actively doing damage to others with every new dollar they take in.

…And then watch how fast they walk away from you in contempt.

Because the more you come to terms with this fundamental immorality that defines our social system’s mechanics, the more you realize that everyone should be perpetually ashamed — and if they are not, they are just fu***ng sociopaths.

"It's disheartening to discover government corruption and incompetence. Whose interest does ignorance serve? If we humans bear, say, hereditary propensities toward the hatred of strangers, isn't self-knowledge the only antidote? If we long to believe that the stars rise and set for us, that we are the reason there is a Universe, does science do us a disservice in deflating our conceits? For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring."

Ka ching $$$

Classic right? The United States instigates a war that shuts down a major energy distribution channel —-and then benefits to the tune of billions of dollars by selling its own oil to the countries deprived.

Capitalism at it’s finest
