    make decisions based on reality

    “reality” in the sense that normal people think of it (actual, real reality) doesn’t matter to rich people. the only thing that matters is convincing people that their reality isn’t real, and that the fantasy bullshit not-reality that the owner class is trying to force-feed everyone is real.

    you see this everywhere you look:

    covid is a hoax
    climate change is a hoax
    AI is good and useful and the best thing possible for the working class
    the economy is doing great

    it goes on and on. but why? MONEY, same reason they do everything they do. it seems like it should be more complicated than that, but it isn’t. it’s for the money. it doesn’t matter that they already have most of it. they want ALL of it
