The Plutocrats’ Gameplan

    Over the last few years it has become clear that across the US, the UK, and individuals and corporations of extreme international wealth there is a concerted attack on democratically organized society as we know it. 


    The methods are very familiar and obvious at this stage: concerted mass media campaign through client newspapers, tv stations and journalists. Funded think tanks produce smoke screens. People mobilized around simple iconic issues to become divided and manipulated. Religion used where it will work. Brilliant innovative exploitation of social media to attack and shape agendas and direct elections. All this very privately funded. The GOP has now moved onto to trying to steal elections post facto and remove one person one vote in favour of electoral college style elections within states where their votes will count for more. (See Texas, previously Colorado) 


    So we know it’s happening but why? At the back of this there is, I believe, a view that the earth is a planet with shrinking resources and these must be controlled for the benefit of the elite. There is a need for the masses in order to get the elite to power but once there, it must be secured because only the elite will rule afterwards. (Hence the “front men” Trump, Johnson). Plutocracy is the goal. To this end, rules based internationalism must be destroyed (part of the goal of Brexit) to be replaced by great powers controlled by elites who dominate their area. 


    Extraordinarily this has all been in so much plain view that Hollywood did a very funny movie on aspects of it recently. 


    How do you see this play out? EU Collapse? Texas secession? Chinese colonises Russia? Ireland forced to rejoin UK? Musk selects the fittest to flee to Mars? Ecological collapse? Nuclear mass extinction? It will fail because? Or are you cheering for the comet?
