The vulture-cannibalistic corporate capture of nearly everything leads to many vicious feedback loops including extinctions of species, destruction of the planet, grotesque income&property ownership inequality and deepening political capture (corruption). If the average person from the masses of people had any self-respect, they'd band together and form worker-owned co-ops to ensure livable wages AND fair remuneration from their work. They'll never get anything more than crumbs with this current, extremely unfair wealth transfer (e.g., slavery) arrangement.

Instead it is mainly used like you say, in a recursive way, so to protect itself even when there is no invention, no ingenuity, just pure oppression through disruption of communication, things like unions, independent candidates, etc Crumbs from an abundance are pleasing to those who have comparisons to look at: nature's parasites or pangs of age or pangs of poverty or 1800s medicine. The real issue was never equality. It has always been adequacy and comparative "neo-nostalgism." Until the hinge breaks of fully, there are usually never any real revolutions. Maybe the internet can change that.
