Finally, the out-of-touch vision of the ruling class has been thwarted by a handful of the world’s wealthiest people who plan to make even more money off the suffering of the poor and disenfranchised. Take that, aristocrats!
The good news is true. The pendulum has swung. The power now lies in the hands of the people—specifically, the people with the most money. The coastal elites have been bested by the coastal elites. But not without the help of financial backing from the Silicon Valley elites, ringing endorsements from the Texas elites, and, of course, journalistic support from the e-commerce and cloud computing elites. Thank you, the elites, for defeating the elites.
