It’s going to be the biggest and most destructive form of disaster capitalism we’ve ever seen, mainly because they are the very people who are engineering the disaster in the first place.

Again, that is the thing I don’t understand. They are already filthy rich. Why crash and burn everything? Wouldn’t it be better to just continue making boatloads of money?

I see you don’t understand. They always need MORE.

They are already getting more. They want more more.

“They want more!”
“But, they’re already making more money…what’s the point?”
“Who said anything about money?..”

They have first boatloads of money, yes, but what about second boatloads of money?

It’s nothing to do with putin. It’s just greedy sociopaths are prepared to exploit the state the world finds itself in. They’ve always done it and always will it’s just the modern world is unique in that almost the entire population of the western world is the target of the exploitation this time around and the world will almost certainly never recover from the environmental damage that will continue to be done and accelerated while people are too busy fighting over DEI and trans rights.
The culture wars are a distraction to the great heist.
