When it’s all done and dusted, I hope it’s the beginning of the end for corporate capitalism add wet know it. Allowing them to become that big and powerful through corruption that they literally think that they can control the world, is insane.

This is happening because of greed.

It always happens because of greed. All of history.

  Don’t discount religion in that mix.

  Yet not one lesson was learned. If anything, they’ve made it worse. No accountability, monopolies in almost every sector, or vast majority ownerships.

I would say it would’nt be able to happen due to greed exclusively. You need an entire nation (race! the entire human race) to be selfish, dumb and hateful enough to allow these buffoons to rise to power, in the first place.

The orange faeces sprinkler could have done literally everything, have the voters been empathetic and intelligent enough - he wouldn’t have gotten much further than being the head of a hotel company, or something. At best.

But yet, here we are, because the entire human race, the human DNA itself is designed to be a selfish dick, and prioritise themselves or their closest circle (friends/family) over anyone and anything else. This will be our end, and hopefully it happens before any other forms of life cease to exist on this planet.
