Capitalism won't work well when centralized among those who are unaccountable for lies and are willing to employ illusion, hiring teams of young marketing majors who donβt yet understand they are engineering mere facades of philanthropic altruism, that their naive constructions are just virtue signaling masks that claim social responsibility without being socially responsible. In a few short years, the resulting market, captured by these conglomerates, will be in a perpetual struggle with the poverty line by design, dependent on or addicted to the scraps of the elitist 'profiteers,' who live without boundary, insulated by social engineers who puppeteer a management caste whose ultimate contribution is to stimulate tropical economies as they gallavant and debauch.
But I remain hopeful π
A system of secrecy and insulation from truth, based on control, illusion, and maintaining the ignorance of its victims, is limited by its ability to do so. A victim is no longer once the trick is understood. That which is seen cannot be unseen. A truth accepted dissolves all associated lies and their supports forever, while a lie must be maintained in opposition to reality.
Interactions ought be voluntary, and no perfect angels exist to regulate the market for us better than we can be able to understand ourselves. As such, the fraud in our markets is best exposed by individuals and cooperation among them - not some fiat decree. My rational hope stems from an understanding that it is only lies dissolved that is needed to restore spontaneous order. Thatβs the easy part! The technology is here, we need only to solidify consensus education models distilled to short-form video and coloring books.
The peaceful transition within each of us is the part that takes so much time. Obstacles include division, resentfulness toward our neighbors, clinging to old ideas, distrust of innovation, old model information sources, doubt in ambition, fear of change, temporal distraction, occlusion of long-term self interest in favor of short-term gratification, and reputation built on vague social proxy heuristics rather than tested and proven accuracy and trustworthiness over time. We few are beginning to recognize and identify the coordinated efforts to appreciate these obstacles - to us they become transparent and ineffectual even as our friends and family are blinded by them.
Inward reflection, rigorous honesty, constant vigilance, cooperation, service, and deserved support leads to a tipping point, piece by piece, one by one.
