Years of propaganda from oligarchs, their think tanks and their propaganda spreaders. This has been an attack for many decades but especially after WW2 during the red scare and then after 1970 when the Powell Memo was issued. That is the origin of all of our messes, including Reagan and Trump.

Many of the same right wing think tanks are from the same oligarchs from decades ago and/or their heirs. Think Timothy Mellon or Birch Society (Koch Brother father). Even then, there was “the business plot” where the oligarchs of the 1930s wanted fascism because of the threat FDR had to their wealth and power.

The irony is that conservatives think they are “rational” and left leaning people are “emotional”. Like no, almost none of your positions are backed by research and data to be good. Conservatives think higher education is a liberal conspiracy so it’s not surprising.

I heard Altman wants a trillion $ bailout

Totally not a bubble! Just a few thousand more data centers!

You’re supposed to take care of yourself regardless bro

A large chunk of American citizens fall for the libertarian and “small gov” pandered lies, every single time.

Worships the almighty dollar too

The whole system modeled on infinite growth is not sustainable. The population is aging and we’re running out of markets and increased competition abroad. We’ve hit the end of the road for the post WW2 era. The American model in almost every industry just milks and extorts the working class and they are running out. Between big pharma price gouging citizens, banks trying to deregulate, and big tech out of any innovation just making harmful advertising/surveillance capitalism. They are running out of ways to extort and keep maximizing profits without harming citizens. They are trying to seize more control and influence of the government because of this.

Uh oh. The tech bros and their inflated stocks might tumble.
