Stock ownership by the rich has reached a record high ...
the wealthiest 10% now own 94% of all stocks
Let's break that down:
Imagine 100 pies are available and 100 people come to get them.
People line up based on their wealth, richest first.
The first person in line (the "1%") demands and receives - 56 pies.
His employee uses a wheelbarrow to load them into the back of the Rolls before departing.
The next 9 people (representing the remainder of the top 10%)
demand and receive - 38 pies (or about 4 pies apiece).
They are able to stack and carry them to their Mercedes before driving off.
Then the next 40 wealthiest people (in the 50-90 percentile) receive 5 pies;
which means that each person will get one SLICE of pie (~1/8 pie).
They put the slice in the wife's purse and leave.
Finally, the last 50 people approach and are told that only 1 pie remains.
Being hungry, they gladly accept the sliver of a slice (1/50th of a pie)
and then quickly eat it before … the Rolls returns.

Don't be afraid to call things by what they are.
MAGA is a terrorist organization,
ICE is a secret police force conducting Ethnic Cleansing,
Elon Musk is an oligarch,
and Trump is a foreign backed coup d'état figurehead.
This is not an administration, this is a regime ...
and your country is occupied."

Trump is crushing America's free press;
soon the only "news" we will be allowed to receive, will be from ...
Fox
Every accusation Trump made was true of his side (not the other side).
That is called "psychological projection";
in which you accuse the other side - of what your side is guilty of.
It is learned by every kid in America on the playgrounds in grade school.
You probably know it better as this: "No I'm not ... YOU are!"
Since Magats have the emotional attainment of small children,
this is the tactic that Fascists use 90% of the time to direct their thoughts.

So, do you think this would have any effect on Maga cult members?
No. They will continue to sacrifice their own children and family members
in order to remain loyal ... to the cult.

First X, and then YouTube, banned me from commenting for a day.
They warned me that I could lose my account if I continued.
This was my comment (which was obviously directed at Trump):
SIEG HEIL, MEIN FUHRER !!!
(English: "Praise liberty, my leader")
Did I make a threat? Or use profanity? (Neither).
They claimed that it was hateful content.
Yet we all know that Trump has publicly praised Hitler
and even lavished praise on Hitler's generals.
Hitler certainly didn't consider it hateful or insulting.
So the argument for hate falls apart in the light of those facts.
But it was something that can be as devastating as hate ...
it was ridicule
(That is what Dems should have done during Trump’s speech;
after rising and saluting - ala Elon Musk).
Here is the pop-up message I got from YouTube:
Commenting paused to protect the community
We've discovered that comments you've left may violate Community Guidelines:

Here is the feedback that I sent:
"
I don't blame you for cutting off my freedom of speech.
You can only do what your lords tell you to do in order to keep your jobs.
I used no profanity, no threats, and since Trump admitted he admired,
not only Hitler but his generals as well, you can't say I defamed him.
I realize that very shortly our freedom of speech will be gone.
I wish you guys luck.
I would hate to be in your position, forced to take away
one of the most cherished rights that, we as Americans ... used to have."
To all of you out there, enjoy your freedom of speech while you have it
because Trump’s minions are removing that along with ...
as many of your freedoms as they can

How are we (Homo Sapiens) related to Neanderthals?
That depends ...
Based on the current "consensus"
(or the closest thing to a consensus)
Homo Neanderthalenis evolved from Homo Heidelbergensis.
Some time later ... so did we.
After we evolved from Homo Heidelbergensis, they went extinct.
The answer depends on whether:
we separated from Heidelbergensis who then went extinct;
which would make us the younger sibling of Neanderthals
(this is likely the current, most popular understanding).
Or: after Neanderthals evolved into a separate human species,
Heidelbergensis went extinct ...
when the rest of them evolved into Homo Sapiens.
The second scenario would make US the ancestor (parent) of Neanderthals.
Something to think about when you are bored.

The minds of cult members (like MAGA)
are under the almost complete control of the cult;
and have been programmed, never to doubt or betray the cult ...
under ANY circumstances
That explains why, throughout history, cults have been so hard to defeat;
and modern, educated humans are just as easy to prey upon
as ancient, illiterate humans were thousands of years ago.
If education were the key - that is not what we would see.
So while education is important, history proves that a more important factor must be in play.
Since we are talking about mental processes, that narrows the target down to ...
psychology
The Oligarchs have controlled every civilization on Earth for 10,000 years
through a combination of force (violence) and psychology (Divide-and-Conquer).
