One of the most successful (and dangerous) aspects of this is that the upper class have trained so many in the lower and middle classes to not only revere the wealthy but to champion and protect them, under the guise that they too will be rich one day (even though the system has literally evolved again to make that extremely unlikely for the vast majority of people on Earth). These brainwashed souls want to “protect” their destiny; they’re imagined legacies.Alot of these people are born into positions of power and wealth already, they have done nothing to earn it, or deserve it, a lot like the royal family. Fair play to the working class that are self made millionaires but they tend to be the grounded ones, as they come from normal backgrounds. It's an archaic class system no better than Rome with emperors and plebs.
“Don’t tax the wealthy now, because then I’ll be taxed later when I am rich.” “Don’t hold them to the same ethical standard as me, as then I will be held to that standard when I am wealthy and want to fuck with the peasants, as is my unalienable right as a member of the upper class.”
In many ways it is a perpetual hazing ritual where almost no one is actually admitted in to the secret society.
We see that with those still defending the Tories even after everything the May, Johnson, and now Truss governments have done to their livelihoods and futures, and the livelihoods/futures of their family, friends, and greater communities.
You see it with the thousands of random Twitter accounts (and sometimes in-person crowds) jumping in to defend, harass—or worse—assault anyone that has the temerity to criticise business/cultural figures like Elon Musk or Donald Trump.
As I said, it is a weaponised belief that is literally destroying the fabric of society.
