but I don’t see reasons to be confident about that.
you have to adopt the mindset that makes the most sense to you, of course

i don’t get what your argument is. that we don’t objectively know who the people above elon musk are, so therefore they must not exist?
what DOES that say about the state of things? you tell me

desire or ability to control people’s lives
no. the desire is there. and in some cases the ability too.
but they are still muppets, controlled by people more powerful than they are. the fact that elon musk, the “richest man in the world” doesn’t get everything he wants should tell you something.
you need to change your mindset away from thinking people like elon musk are the top of the food chain. he’s fucking not.

While raising their children, Bill Sr. and Mary instilled in them a strong work ethic, the importance of community and the significance of helping others.

yes, bill gates’s parents were loaded. i’m talking about families that have been too wealthy to measure for many many generations, since banking was invented

i mean, fuck musk and bezos and all the rest too. call me a conspiracy theorist, but i’m skeptical of the notion that these people are actually the “richest” of all rich people

you make a good point, but i think of “rich people” as the families who have been unimaginably wealthy for hundreds of years. not musk, not bezos, bill gates, etc. the “old money” doesn’t care if you know they’re rich–in fact they would prefer you didn’t. they just want to control the trajectory of your life in order to keep you in your place, and prevent you from encroaching on their position of power.
think warburgs and rothschilds, not the idiotic rich people flaunting their wealth on twitter

that’s true, i guess it should be called a good movie. but still fuck that movie. there’s enough depressing shit going on in real life, i watch movies to escape, not feel even worse

dude, reading the plot doesn’t convey the depression this movie gives rise to.
Stop the movie before they go back north and I think I’d be ok.
no. “stop the movie before” nothing.
don’t start the movie
