Divide et impera.
This is the biggest win of the 1% in the recent decades. Turning people against each other so they can't eat the rich.
- seph-reed 5y agoI don't think it was really intentional though. I'm pretty sure that maximizing user engagement (as social media does) leads to communities with easily defined and large borders. The border between rich and poor might be easily defined, but it isn't so large as to have a constant flow of anecdotes. The borders between races or genders are much more "daily life." And -- ultimately -- I don't think the rich are that different of humans either. I see the issue as system level, some flaw in design which makes inequalities and differences grow rather than taper out.
