I think capitalism overrides Democracy in this case. They are in it for every damn penny they can squeak out. Morals? Ethics? What are those? #CapitalismRules

Sigmund Freud wasn’t just a bad therapist—he gave the West a blueprint for controlling minds: guilt, repression, and self-policing, all while masking structural oppression. Capital loves that. #PsycheAndPower #CapitalismRules

I forget jobs give you money and money gives you fun stuff #capitalismrules #what does communism offer?

PICTURED: An elongated muskrat brokers a deal to acquire a new subsidiary person (also known as a "child", this one being a female called "Bethlynne" by its producers and fellow humans) to help increase shareholder value by mining cobalt in the Congo. Her father is delighted to do business with such an upstanding citizen, since as we all know, wealth reflects a person's value more than any other metric, so this fellow must have only good intentions... right? Hey, 54% of America agreed on that back in November, how could any majority, no matter how slim and astroturfed, be wrong? ELONGATED MUSKRAT: "Hello, human. I absolutely despise the way you raise your pathetic human child. Please accept $4.4 million in exchange for its ownership, so that I may raise it as I wish with my massive gold stockpile." BETHLYNNE'S SOON-TO-BE-EX-FATHER: "I... must not... profit incentive... too strong... awww shucks. Looks like I touched the money so I gotta take the deal. Sorry, Bethlynne, I just like being a millionaire more than I like having to put up with your shit. Oh well, goodbye forever!"
