i have no problem with anything you said. there's definitely scary stuff going on.

I do think certain elements of the media are making this out to be much worse than it is tho. So far these protests have largely been mild tbh. At least until the cops show up.

The oligarch class usually does exceedingly well in a dictatorship. It's easier and cheaper to pay off the dictator than it is to pay your fair share into a representative democracy.

To some extent...I was thinking about trump being jealous over somebody's success/attention/handicap and stealing their assets just cause he could.

Trump is morbidly obese and 77, the billionaire class isn't worried about him. Buy him the biggest yacht, bow down with sufficient public tribute and all is well.
