Pathocracy, that's a keeper. Aside from all the evil involved - worthy of another essay, my friend - just from a monetary POV, this seems a grand global heist. And touchpapers are being lit. Mass protest is getting stronger, as the trucker protest in Ottowa exemplifies. When Malcolm X talked about not using a banana, I bet he didn't mean a truck!

"love for the enormous, the gigantic, the colossal; his delight in towering works that impress" Yep, that's what we are up against. A technocrat's version of one of the Wonders of the World, as their Titanic legacy, built with the blood of slaves.

Soon to be the big losers in this kleptocratic reign of losers. May even be increasingly surprised by philosophical changes of heart in the kleptocratic “elite”. Some are beyond redemption but maybe not all. We the people are in charge. We are the source of all their wealth and power. There are awakenings from all corners.

It’s a planetary three dimensional game of GO - a poker game of games.
