Mostly, I think they silently cooperate in a way that looks coordinated, but is just individual self-interest that happens to line up.

Plato observed this. It's called oligarchy. He said the good news is that it eventually falls because of the lack of coordination, because oligarchs having their own interests end up conflicting one another. The people also always get fed up with corruption eventually. The bad news is that it will get worse before it gets better.

i think- i think the "invisible shadow government" conspiracies are a cope. if someone voted for the current government that is fucking things up (as the opposition said they would) then it might be hard to admit to having made the wrong choice whilst voting, especially if the current government claims to hold the same values as you "my wholesome christian government that said they'd help guys like me wouldn't be the ones making my life harder! it must be the secret cabal!!!"

i have an ur-conspiracy theory that every elaborate conspiracy theory is a distraction from a simple and straightforward conspiracy. for every "trump is trying to uncover a vast child sex ring" there's a "trump fucks kids and our system of capital protects him"

Like Thiel and Ellison. They are pulling the strings like a marionette on our government, but they aren't household names.

If the rich people control everything then it would be normal to put the spotlight on each one of them once in a while just for society to know who holds the power. Instead newspapers gossip about movie stars and a small group of rich people. That's more than smartness.

The only good billionaire is a dead billionaire

No, they're secret. No way to know. Unless you got insider information. i lick it boom boom dem

What is it with people associating Judaism with secret power? Just because they win a disproportionate amount of Nobel prizes?

He looks like a fucking tweaker

I don't really know how widely known Peter Thiel is. Like the circles I run in know him. He's known here. But does the average person on the street know who is? Not even that does the average news watcher/reader know who he is?

nooo don't you see the secret group of rich people wants the immigrants to have a cheap supply of labor force that's willing to work for less and displaces our own white population. we're better, but we can't tell you why. also the immigrants are lazy and are leeching on our subsidies, so we must remove the subsidies for all so the immigrants don't get them. also won't somebody think of the children. it doesn't matter what exactly you think of them, as long as you show you're in control by taking dominance and not letting others choose what to do. also imagine how bad it would be if women could choose how many children to have. we'd all die out. we can't tell you why that would be bad, but the white race must always stay on top. god bless america.
