    The line must go up, whatever the cost!

    Including lying, controlling narratives, committing outright fraud, controlling the fate of companies through “consultants”, changing the definition of Recession, killing of whistleblowers, killing of journalists who help whistleblowers, to name just a very short few.

    This system blows, how many millenia does it fucking take to figure that out?

      I’m afraid “this system” has existed since humans learned to lie and commit fraud, and it’s not called capitalism.

      But there are some laws which these things follow - the more horizontal and decentralized everything is, the less such rot.

      The political ideology is called distributivism and unfortunately associated with Catholicism, but it’s the sanest I’ve encountered.
