    It isn’t even about the money, it’s about the power and the game. They’re addicted to the pursuit of power and corporate structures feed that addiction.

      Yeah they don’t give a shit about money, they just need to win and everybody else needs to lose.

      You think power isn’t about the money? 😄 (Edit: actually kind of in reverse, but you get me.)

        It’s not always, money is just the best way to wield power in a capitalist society. Look at Christofascists, illegalizing trans people, banning abortion, trying to kickstart the apocalypse, none of that is about money, it’s about exerting control over others. It’s accomplished with money, but money isn’t the end goal.

          Sorry if it wasn’t crystal clear but that was exactly the point I was trying to make… But I think you still got it. 👍
