Shareholders, the 0.1%, dominate everything. No matter whether they are modern civilization shareholders, political dynasties, or oligarchy they [indirectly] decide the work of everyone else and how that work focuses, what it focuses on.
If that is giving us the impression of connectivity by always tweaking for longer time on-site, upselling or cross-selling across the corporation, pushing one agenda across the whole media imperium - dictated or by selection of staffers... the drive to satisfy those at the top decides it all.
Because even the C-level staff is a slave of the board and the shareholders. A well paid one tho but still subject to the whims of those who yield the true power.
yes, so that small minority, regardless of whether they are colluding or not will also come into a tight line that maximises their own gains which is by maximising us.
But at the same time we are real spoiled and have no idea what to do with our free time. It's a complicated thing if you can preserve a culture when everyone starts to consume the same content. Where is the new novelty? What will be the new exciting thing? After Trump it's pretty clear that we will never go back to something that looks normal? It's already a TV Show.
For each individual person it's simple to regain freedom. Just turn off the Intellect and you can start to use your real Intelligence and live a unique life. Only problem is that you still need to engage with a Life where majority is trapped in their own Intellect story. Which will mean even more divide and complication. Too much dissection of life and it will break as we are starting to see the last couple of years.
Clearly boredom will rise a lot if people doesn't realize they are living a life trapped in the Intellect. Thanks to our schooling system. But clearly it will be impossible for the government to be able to control humans now with the Blockchain stuff. Which will make the next 15 years very interesting to watch up close.
