The 1%

[Mariotroid]

Is there a such thing as the 1%, the illuminati? The all seeing eye? Are they trying to make us into thoughtless drones? Are the 1% Going to take over the world? WI'll there be a new world order? Is capitalism inherently evil? Big questions cause it' late at night.

There defnitely is a conspiracy in my opinion...

Careful what you say online. You never know who is watching.

The 1% and the illuminati/nwo/whatever are different things

The 1% are obviously and visibly real - there aren't any major conspiracies ruling the world, its just big corporations w business interests


Capitalism is definitely inherently evil tho, putting accumulation of capital above the wellbeing of citizens couldn't be anything else

The 1% consists not only of The Powers That B, but also people that make a few hundred thousand dollars a year.

If we're talking about the NWO people, then they may have existed as a small sect in the Freemasons at one point, but there's no reason to think they still exist. I don't buy into the Illumi-nutty conspiracy theories.

The 1% though (or as Bernie said according to SNL, the top one tenth of one tenth of one tenth of one percent), I think most people regardless of political stance tend to think income inequality is an issue, regardless of how they would like to see it tackled.

Hylian's day job, little did we know, was saying controversial things on the internet.

you fool!!!! you fixed it wrong!!!!

Conspiracy theories usually begin with a kernel of truth. Over the years, there have been secret societies that wielded a fair amount of power within certain groups, but there's no credible evidence supporting the idea that an Illuminati-like group is secretly controlling modern society.

As for the real "1%", some inequality in wealth and power is totally normal - in fact, it's inevitable. But when these disparities become too extreme, and when upward mobility becomes more difficult, we reach a situation where the foundations of modern democracy and economy begin to crack.

This post sounds exactly like something a member of the Illuminati would say when trying to convince people that his all-powerful group doesn't really exist.

Course clear! You got a card.

And to answer the one remaining question, this guy seems to get around. He's probably seen a lot. He is in at least eleven billion places at once, you know.

List of projects I eventually plan to finish after the indefinite hiatus is over, assuming I don't abruptly cancel them:
