I think it shows why billionaires shouldn't own news outlets. They become their propaganda machines. Look at WaPo vomiting out puff piece after puff piece for their owner, Daddy Bezos.
- peakaboo 5y agoI think the problem is that money runs the world, so rich people run the world. What can we do about that without abolishing capitalism? It's a hard question to answer. Almost always, rich people are evil and don't care about other humans unless they can get some benefit from them. But I really hate how we are supposed to look up to them as well. They don't deserve fame. They are despicable human beings.

The most recent example is certainly the labor movement of the late 19th and early 20th century which gave us unions, 8 hour work days, and the weekend.
