The Middle Class throughout history have always obsessed over one primary goal: Keeping up with the Joneses.
If the Joneses just happen to be a bunch of stuck-up sanctimonious jerks concerned with everyone else's business instead of their own, then the Middle Class are going to follow suit. But where did these Joneses come from and how do they always seem to have more money than their neighbours? The truth is that the modern-day Joneses are a media-propagated myth invented by the financial industry to promote spending. Lately the Joneses have become fascinated with exclusively helping people they've never met; People from countries they've neither been to nor know anything about. The Joneses concern for humanity reaches far and wide but doesn't operate locally. This obviously represents marvellous wealth-building opportunities for charities, government programmes, non-governmental organisations, non-profits, new-fangled religions, genetically modified food companies, banks, consultants, and big pharma. The list is endless.
What does the future hold for the sh!t-giving industry?
Like every other business this industry works in cycles. In 2023 the Western World is at or near the top of a sh!t giving cycle, and is beginning to edge towards a kind of "constipation". Now that the financial industry has squeezed the easiest money out of the Middle Class, the next wealth-extracting phase is war, where the Middle Class switches from giving a sh!t about countries to bombing the sh!t (out of them). However, certain sh!t-giving opportunities are still presented even in this phase: The Middle Class can now give a sh!t about individuals coming from all corners of the earth (as long as they don’t have to live beside them or give up their opulent homes.); Some come from war-torn hellholes but others not so much. The Middle Class don't care to check such details as they are constantly comforted by their white Teslas and Range Rovers in which they drive around with an air of smug self importance wondering whose eyes are gazing upon them with envy.
Unfortunately for them (but not for us Globalists) the price of such luxuries increases over time, and the Middle Class Prison Industrial Complex expands; Personal data must be handed over. Taxes must increase. The central heating must be turned off. We will stop eating meat, etc. More tributes for the High Priests of The Church of Morality. We Globalists might fear that there will be rumblings of dissent; However such fears are unfounded- We can depend on that ever-dependable Middle Class Shared Cognitive Dissonance to prevent them from ever rousing from their cozy waking slumber.
New ways to give a sh!t
We Globalists are constantly coming up with new and creative ideas to expand our lucrative industry. What we need is a constant supply of new victim classes. This is an elementary process:
Take any grouping or entity (say the entirety of mankind for example.)
Identify (or preferably invent) an “underdog” sub-group within the group (ie. smaller, darker, weaker, confuseder, poorer marginaliseder, etc.)
Let everyone know about this gross injustice that lay mysteriously undiscovered since the dawn of time.
Sit back and watch the entertainment as you sip your champagne.
"Middle Class"? Aren't we really referring to the Laptop Class?
Middle class used to mean people who work for a living.
The crowd who enjoyed staycations during the CLOVEN-ClownWorld lockdown and finalized renovation plans for their McMansions were the Laptop Class.
It was during the lockdown that I saw the proliferation of coal-fired Teslas really take off in my area. Those emblems of laughably not-virtue were functioning as advance warning, sort of like if someone were to choose to wear a lapel pin that reads "I'm a TeeRard for Demockracy." It comes in handy to profile those who need to be eliminated first using the remote-controlled target switch that engages the nano contents of their CLOVEN-ClownWorld injections....erm, I mean, "vaccines," of course.
(Shouldn't there be the category "TeeRards for Demockracy" amongst the list of downtrodden victims? I think they should also have their own class of pronouns, something that clearly conveys the essence of "Fighting4JustUs" and other hollow tropes...erm, I mean, valiant declarations of commitment to the continued progress of the human race, of course.)
Animals, you forgot animals. (Don’t get me wrong, I’m on their side.)
