Nothing rational about plutocracies or oligarchies.
- danans 1y agoWhat system of reason are you using? To take the perspective of the oligarchs and plutocrats, if they can get away with it (avoiding the pitchforks), why isn't it rational? That doesn't make it fair or just, or sustainable for societies or humanity, but it can be rational.
