      I would bet that there are still plenty of evil genuises in places like Blackrock etc. that know how the system works without becoming delusional.

      But I absolutely believe that a large portion of the multigenerational ruling class have absolutely huffed their own farts and have no idea what they’re doing

      Idk, like yea a lot of them. But I would not be surprised if there’s still a large contingent of them that would just prefer the US to be an open slave state instead of the friendly rainbow capitalism of “voluntary” wage slavery. Rainbow Capitalism was fascism’s Loss Leader, and now that the competition (USSR) is out of the picture it’s time for the rug pull. It’s just a question of whether or not they’re doing it too soon, imo. And honestly, I’m not seeing the sort of resistance yet that’s gonna turn the tide.
