Executive Fever
Marked safe from tears when shitty bosses die
I think of the long stingy road to this,
where estimation will not even try
to have no obligation go amiss
in a republic of the free and brave;
free, that is, to accumulate more debt,
as less and less we can keep from the grave,
unless lotteries are a winning bet.
Yet in this mess they say the boss is right
and that the private jet and private yacht
are not somehow an ecologic blight
where at least the Orcas have not been bought
and know damn well that they can't trust a boat
that won't help keep integrity afloat.

Re. Executive Fever
Is this partly in reference to that CEO that was killed?
With the amount of people he clearly didn't care about essentially killing, I'm not surprised someone would do that to him.

Yes, but of course also critical of the global bro-ligarchy in general, and the sickeningly self-congratulatory culture that they try to foster.
I totally agree that the killing was justifiable homicide on behalf of everyone who ever had to declare bankruptcy due to medical bills, which I have heard is around 50% of all personal bankruptcies in The United States.
Our county hates poor people.

They were using an AI with a 90% inaccuracy to evaluate policies, no doubt they knew exactly what they were doing.
A lot of countries seem to have a problem with the poor probably more homeless really with all the hostile architecture around thats just cruel.
I can't believe how expensive going to hospital for something really minor is there.

That all checks out with what I've been seeing and hearing,
and you're spot on about architecture being unfriendly to humans.
Here in the states, especially the western part, the architecture is all about catering to the automobile.
Everything is way out of whack for most of us due to the one percenters owning everything, especially the political process, which is supposed to be about no taxation without representation, but really it has evolved into no representation for anyone other than the billionaires.
it's all pretty bleak, especially for the youngest among us.

You gotta wonder what things would have been like if people were allowed to have electric cars when first introduced over a century ago, but Standard oil I'm not sure if thats entirely the reason but i know they made it so you had to taint any alternative (liquid) fuel sources with their product.
I think they want a civil war there thats the only conclusion i can come too.
We're ebbing closer to a digital prison here its a slow roll so far but all according to plan.
I think they "test" different aspects in different countries.
Yeah I don't like the idea of my son having to live in this world honestly. Thankfully he got to have a childhood. I want him to have a happy life but I'm not sure he will.

Same here with my kids.
The only thing for certain that I can conclude is that there's an addiction aspect to being rich that seems to push them into truly horrible schemes to get even richer, where they just don't give a shit about who they have to bring down to get what they want, with the ecosphere being the first thing to go.
And it really doesn't look like there's anything on the horizon to turn things around.
Bleak as hell.

They're either psychopaths and/or narcissists. I'm pretty sure my half brother is one or both (all psychopaths are narcissists) he's very driven by his desires and doesn't care what he does to fulfil them, I'm very much the opposite (despite how i may come across sometimes).
Thats like them, why stop when you can have and can get more. Thats why true harmony will never be a thing, unless eugenics/genetic engineering gets involved and thats not a good idea at all.
The damage they cause means nothing to them its all about, more (as you know).
The poles are shifting too though so they're playing off of that (i know I've said that but it is true too).
Unfortunately they have every out covered (dont worry not doing my thing) but its terrifying where this is going, we have about 5 years after that every aspect of our lives will be subject to them. Unless they somehow get gotten too, life (living) as we know it is over.

Just their treatment of the environment tells us all we need to know about how they think, and it isn't good.
They have their well stocked nuke bunkers all paid for though, so they don't care.

Like the Ocean Gate fiasco, where there was hardly any sympathy, this is one of those things that is resembling the French revolution where heads will roll. All memes, reels, etc. are expressing what folks have been saying all along.
Glad you're marked safe from that. Maybe other businesses will take note that they're supposed to have morals when it comes to health care, unless they're willing to bite the bullet so to speak.

I read the Wikipedia page on the French revolution recently, and that knowledge, combined with an awareness of additional historical revolutions and types of governance ought to be required curriculum in high schools everywhere.
All we had at my high school was a class where we talked about the headlines, and everyone hated it because nobody could relate.
Seems like folks have to suffer first hand before they start to put two and two together.
