    And getting rid of the two party system is the answer. Maybe in 1796 when there was 35,726 voters it worked. Money is only a part of the problem.

    Power is filter too. The same reason we don’t correct the police in the U.S.

        1Stanford prison experiment

        Is this controversial, yes. Should we atleast talk about it? Yes!

        2For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many Sorrows.

        Be a black man with money and hit a white guy with power. Tell me who wins.

        These people believe it is their right. I hope you have never been genuinely looked down upon. Like you are trash. Money just makes them worse.

          1. Sure, that’s just edgy roleplay. Power was metaphorically handed over to the students in the, now well understood to be fraudulent, “Stanford Prison Experiment” by an authority figure. Money > Power > Authority > Loyalty. That’s how it works. The whole experiment was bullshit, with no real data collected. Just done for the sake of a Ted talk.

          2. Yes, My statement agrees with that.

          3. Yeah, but Kanye West doesn’t really compare to the PayPal Mafia in terms of wealth.

          Yeah, the richer guy wins, as P. Diddy found out. Race is just a distraction though, used to divide people and keep their ire away from the billionaire class. Who own all of our media outlets and platforms of communication. Because they’re billionaires, who get their power from the money they have accrued through exploiting our data for social engineering and surveillance capitalism. I do not see what you’re disagreeing with.
