I like to use the analogy (not sure if I made this up or stole it. Oh well) that we're all in a giant swirling body of water like a tub when you pull the plug at the bottom.

Those on the outside swirl at a slower-feeling rate, the black hole of death is far off and easily pushed from mind

Those nearest the black hole just saw their buddies get sucked in and under.

The ultra wealthy capitalists found out a long time ago that if you simply convince the guys in the middle and outside that they're actually all in the same tub with them so if you "harm" the capitalists that harm will trickle down causing harm to all. Those who feel safe can see the black hole and fear nothing more than inching closer to being that poor fucker swirling the drain. They cope and willingly believe the clear lies.

The part they can't accept is that the capitalists aren't even in the swirling death bath. They control the tub. They pulled the plug. They created this whole made up fucking thing. So if all the people swirling just sort of banded together, accepted the tub is fictional, and uh, very kindly dealt with the capitalists, they could build an entirely new thing where no one has to swirl and die.

I should adapt this into a children's book to compete with those batshit insane ones Rush Limbaugh used to put out (lol, dead)

Alternatively, crabs in a bucket, etc.

Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

Guy looks like if he was a fish, he'd be a sturgeon. Just a gut feeling.
