mold sucks

were being pedantic and austistic though now off topic

mold only causes a problem if you decide to remain where mold is

naw, its not austistic to lay out the reasoning for killing all humans

it will solve all humanities problems

its the perfect plan

Thanos didn't go far enough

but back on topic. we have a group of people, all of who apparently don't want to take power from each-other, according to the video we were talking about.

because the easiest way, in his example, to undermined the power of anyone else in the "evil capitalist" group, would be to put funding into growing the 8% so they feel like you are on their side and not part of the rest of the evil capitalist.

one group doesent care (which i think is actually to big)

this in turn, would give reason for the other evil capitalists to stop funding the 8% and instead put funding into an opposition to their group.

which would split the 8% into at least 2 factions

(hey, and now we have republicans and democrats)

the problem with the 8% is that its so indocternated in what the evil capitalist thinks it doesent actually know what its fighting against anymore, it doesent even really know what it stands for, it changes its own ideology and is fractionalized into so many different ideologys that have something in common but rarely actually focus on that and aim outword that it doesent know how to think for itself

thats even worse for the capitalists. because its a weapon any other capitalist can use against them

its being used against other capitalists, but its also very stupid and easly distracted and again capitalists know a more dangerous enemy than eachother

at different times different capitalists have control over the 8%

you see that in what they use to stand against

and how it keeps changing over time

i dont actually believe in a top of the pyramid

i beleive its narrower up there but i think its not lonely

i don't even thing the top is that stagnant

i think its a violate thing that has people leaving and joining all the time, because this is just how humans work.

i also dont think its defined souly with money but money is a strong factor

influince is another

and its not a bad thing. the people in the top are kept in check by their peers. because think about the people who are at the top. they are people who want to get all the power and keep it. which puts them at odds with each-other. And in the collateral of that fighting power is split up, and new people seize that power to climb up to the top

money isint the only influince but its the strongest right now. but trust is another which is why some very rich people arnt trusted and some are and some arnt for good reasons because of who else does trust them

so long as resources are finite, the top will always exist. money really means nothing. its resources and the ability to control those resources that get you to the top. doesn't matter how you do it.

so its pointless trying to get rid of the top. and anyone who wants to get rid of it, is not actually trying to get rid of it. they are just looking for some way to join it.

because you can't get rid of it

not while resources are finite

not while that 90% can't ignore the rest of humanity and still get what they want.

and so long as the top is not static, which so long as there are people it won't be, then society is not under the control of any one group really. society is under the control of society.

key isint getting rid of the top, the key is getting the top to act in the best interests of the people and allowing the 2% to grow. heirarchy of influince and power is still important to the function of a society however it needs to be a healthy relationship between top and bottom not onesided

The biggest problem is defining what is the best interests of the people?

i think that is important, i dont know if its the biggest problem. one issue of it though is humans will defult to a way of living in complacency that isint actually very good on a sociatal level

i think most people tend to know right now one of the issues of society is due to how complacent everyone is and careless for the future of the next generation and those after. but no one really had an agreeible solution

Everyone has their own Utopia. There is not "best for society" because what is subjectivity good for one person is bad for another

there is good for society though, we have a wealth of history to draw from

I'd disagree, Grenade.

I think the concept of a Utopia is a way to justify authoritarian action.
