  • The wealthy and powerful do not achieve that status through any special trait that makes them superior. They are just as boring and fucked up as everyone else but they have to seem better or the illusion of meritocracy falls apart and people start to wonder why these people have been elevated above them. So they shaped society so that being aggressively mediocre or even downright incompetent is no hindrance to maintaining your family’s dynastic hold in wealth and power.

    As a side effect the various compensatory mechanisms they constructed to paper over their numerous flaws all worked together to elevate the worlds worst piece of barely sentient shit to the peak of wealth and power.






  • I read some shitty article a while ago that was lamenting the antisemitism on a school campus from “both sides”. They gave examples, like the left wing students hung a sign outside a minority support group that said something like “no zionists” and the right wing example was some kid arrested for trying to literally murder someone because they looked Jewish (but weren’t).

    The standards for what counts as antisemitism to these fucks are a complete joke and not remotely the same for “both sides”.
