I implicitly assumed that the "important" part of exploitation would not be natural resources, but humans/human labor.

I agree that someone could become a stronger opponent if you, for example, take nutrition and materials for weapons and armor into account. This would be only based on resources.

My argument for your example would be either "Who cares for the US?" or "If you really wanted to eliminate a single person, why not just pay for it?"

In the second case, I am not talking about having more money/resources than Bezos, but just enough money/resources to pay a motivated person somewhere in his vincinity to throw him off a cliff.

@wakame @Radical_EgoCom @Huntn00 > I would imagine this to happen all the time

Because exploitation by definition means gaining vastly more resources and it is kind of hard to topple much stronger opponent?

Also these structures are complicated and diverse. It is not like there's just some lone tower with an usurper sitting in it.

E.g. if some people somewhere in the world are unhappy with Bezos then to topple him they'd have to take on the entire US.

@Huntn00 @Radical_EgoCom @shuro

True. But then again: If humans are inherently exploitative, why not create a group of your own and topple the current group?

I would imagine this to happen all the time if that precondition holds.

The dominating group/class needs military or police to keep the masses at bay?
Now we have an armed group of inherently exploitative people with no natural enemies...

I'm sure Jefferson Davis looked good in a dress.

@Huntn00 @Radical_EgoCom @shuro

Even if humans were inherently exploitative... it would be in every persons self interest to build a system that minimizes exploitation.

Bad news: You forgo the 0.001% chance of being the exploiter.

Good news: There is also no 99.999% chance you are the exploited.

Happy Canada Day!!🇨🇦

New details have emerged from the orange chump's attempt to get Arizona to overturn the will of the people in 2020.

It's unknown if Jack Smith has interviewed the ex-governor. Last month, Ducey announced that he is leading a free-enterprise focused political action committee, Citizens for Free Enterprise. https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2023/07/01/trump-2020-election-arizona-governor-doug-ducey/

Turns out Trump also tried to get Doug Ducey to overturn Arizona election results!

Everyday I love the first great Miles Davis Quintet as much as I did the first time I heard them. And every day I love the second great Miles Davis Quintet more than the day before.

My only regret about our onrushing planetary breakdown is that Christopher Hitchens and George Carlin won't be around to observe and comment.

I wonder if some secret communications are going on between Russia and the US via India’s President Modi?

First Modi visits the White House, then traveled to the Kremlin to meet Putin.

Makes one go hmmmm.

Humans are extremely malleable. Adaptation is how we have done so well in the game of evolution. So the systems we grow and live in have a significant impact on behavior like coastal trees bent by wind. Systems that incentivize exploitation and selfishness will naturally produce or give visibility and power to that behavior.

@Radical_EgoCom @Huntn00 > Capitalism is inherently exploitative.

Maybe humans are inherently exploitative? It can't be coincidence that all social systems so far basically are evolution of competition and exploitation.

@Huntn00 @mikebrew @Jayslacks I’ll comment more when typing from something other than smartphone but totes agree!
