The world’s elite: Tone-deaf, willfully ignorant, or malicious?
By Terry Paulding

Are the world’s elite tone-deaf, willfully ignorant, or truly malicious? I must contemplate this question because, on a very human level, it points to where we’ve gone wrong, and what we must do to fix it before it’s too late. I think, honestly, it’s all three. It just depends on the person whom we’re talking about and what set of circumstances we’re contemplating.

Let’s face it: There are a relative few who consider themselves “the chosen” in this world, the ones with the most money, the power-mad, the influencers. Nothing says that their ideas are any better than yours or mine, but they nevertheless believe they are invincible. In their own eyes, based on their demonstrable success at getting so rich or powerful, they are smarter, more knowledgeable, and a better judge of what is good for the rest of us.

They’ve arranged life so that they can shut us up easily because they control so many of the ways we communicate. Once they’ve silenced us, they must remain wedded to whatever pathway they chose. They can’t back down or we’d see them as fools.

I'll take "all three" for $200, Alex...

Yep.

That's not why they can't back down; they can't back down because if they did (a) the rest of the regular folks would see what fools they were, and (b) they fear facing active pushback from the people they've suppressed.
