Is that anything new? That seems to be a repeating fact of life throughout history.
- WillDaSilva 5y agoNothing new, certainly, but still worth examining. If we are not content with the current power structures, then we should be wary of changes that further intensify them. We need not totally avoid such changes (i.e. shun technological advancements entirely because of their social ramifications), but we need to be mindful of their effects if we want to improve our current situation regarding the distribution/concentration of wealth and power in the world.
