On The Ruling Class

To understand why things are as they are in the "United States," one must first grasp the worldview of the bourgeoisie—the ruling rich.

The central tenet of their ideology is simple: all things must serve the generation and consolidation of wealth into their own hands. This is the essence of capitalism. They do not act from the motives or logics we recognize, because they do not share our worldview.

Most of us inhabit a fragmented consciousness, a patchwork of lived experience and ruling-class propaganda. We lack ideological unity. The bourgeoisie, by contrast, operates from a coherent, ruthless, and singular vision.

To them, the world exists solely to be exploited. Every person, every resource, every institution must be bent, pressed, and repurposed toward the endless accumulation of capital. They are not "out of step" with us; they are playing an entirely different game by entirely different rules.

In this game, they recognize only themselves as fully human. The rest of us are granted conditional, tiered humanity calibrated to our utility. Those deemed more useful receive a larger share of the spoils; those deemed less useful receive less. This hierarchy is deliberate. It divides us, obscures our shared interests, and ensures their continued dominance.

Yet their greatest weakness lies in this very worldview. It is a fiction. Their maps chart a world that does not exist, and so they lurch from crisis to crisis, blind to the consequences of their own trajectory. They cannot see where their path leads—because they refuse to see the world as it is.
