Tyranny over the Unfortunate
Jul 14th, 2022 at 8:16am
 


"Advocates of capitalism are very apt to appeal to the sacred principles of liberty, which are embodied in one maxim: The fortunate must not be restrained in the exercise of tyranny over the unfortunate."
— Bertrand Russell, Sceptical Essays (1928), Ch. XIII: Freedom in Society, p. 103


or as somebody else said, "The thing about capitalism is, the capitalists end up with the capital."

Exactly.  Someone died? it's their fault.  Focus on the bottom line

All evolution, all life on Earth is the biological tyranny over the Unfortunate.

See the extinction record for further details.
