Your prosperity is built on wars & slavery
The following from a twitter thread by josh wolfe:
Interesting POV from Chinese billionaire friend who made his money outside of China and felt safe from reach of Xi (as he invested in China, but sold his companies to non-Chinese so he never ‘took money out’ of China). He got the number’s wrong but the point was clear…
He asked me the first “democracy”. I answered: Greece. He said what was population of your great democracy. i said ~150,000. He asked how many were slaves? I did not know. He said: ~100,000 slaves rules by ~8,000 Now what about your beloved Rome?
What was the population of Rome? I guessed roughly correct 1M He asked: and how many slaves? I guessed 10k. He said it was closer to 500k around 50% of the population. He asked––rhetorically––what the current population of “democracies” in the world today?
He asked rhetorically the democratic population in the world today? And answered: 700M. 300M in US. 300M in Europe. 100M in Japan. And said 7B people were ‘slaves’ serving the 700M. The clothes we wear, the food we eat, the furniture + design, the technology we use…
He noted when Deng Xiaoping + Jimmy Carter met in 1979: Deng said “we must be friends”. he saw that all the countries that were friends with the US were RICH (S. Korea, Japan, Europe, Canada) yet all the countries that were enemies with the US were POOR (cuba, russia etc)
During that year, 1979, the per capita GDP of China was $184 when it was $11,600 in the US. Today the per capita GDP of China is ~$10,000 while it is $60,000+ in the US. Xi’s interest is POWER. But the power doesnt come from the 500M people who…
Xi’s power doesnt come from the 500M people who live on the coasts and live like Americans with tech jobs + tutors. high-end schooling. It comes from the 1 billion ‘peasants’ in the center of China. And as he takes from the 500M (or the 1% of them) the 1B people applaud him
His point was that the inequity that exists in the world since “your great democracy of” Greece supported by actual or defacto “slaves”—continues TODAY. And that concentrated power will seek to please the poor masses and turn them on the elites whenever needed—over all else

Today in "the fall of civilization": 🤡 The collapse of legitimacy and end of authority.
This planets so called "rulers", "governors", "managers" and "elites" have lost all legitimacy. A critical mass of people now see them as a incapable, mentally ill gang of deprived criminals. The means of their power have eroded beyond the point of no return, which explains the increasingly extreme measures and tactics they use. A sign of desperation and loss of control over the narrative, not confident power. It is only a matter of time, until the entire clown show collapses. The end of authority. Good riddance, but the transition will be challenging. Get ready & enjoy the show.

"There is no going back" - Commentary by Adrian Bauer (mid 2020)
"There is no going back. The survival of all political and media actors depends on the existence of this pandemic! Without a pandemic, the entire state apparatus can only resign. If there is no pandemic, there is no longer any trust in any institution in this state. A social disaster! And that's why there is the pandemic. It is needed! If only to justify the immense damage caused by the measures taken against the pandemic. Pulling back is impossible. And it doesn't matter what further damage will result from the continuation of the pandemic. Here the population is not being protected from disease, but a government protects itself from the consequences of its own mistakes - at the expense of the people."

Confusing leaky computational prediction modeling pipelines with "reality" is a catastrophic mental illness that the majority of "experts" in science, politics, economics & military suffer from.

"It is deliberate policy to keep even the favored groups somewhere near the brink of hardship, because a general state of scarcity increases the importance of small privileges and thus magnifies the distinction between one group and another."- 1984 (P. 231, Chapter. 8), G. Orwell

This scenario is rapidly becoming real (minus the credit card, it will be bio-metrics based) - if we let it unfold. Is this type of thing really what humanity wants and needs at this point?
