Polycrisis really captures the moment. Greek tragedy becomes us in our swift decline.

2011 brought forward a study of a Swiss study about corporate control. I post the image. Here is the Forbes article. I have looked for a more recent follow on in vain. There likely has been one. I easily could miss it. https://www.forbes.com/sites/brendancoffey/2011/10/26/the-four-companies-that-control-the-147-companies-that-own-everything/?sh=3537d33d685b

However 2011 is very important for another reason: the end of Capitalism due to greed and control. https://stegiel.substack.com/p/the-four-companies-that-control-the?utm_source=%2Finbox&utm_medium=reader2

Thanks for the links, will check out your post.

2008 and onwards I suppose was when the bottom actually dropped, and the measures towards centralization in the wake of the crisis has increasingly characterized the system hence.

The "permanent emergency" or "continuous crisis", both terms being linguistic monsters of course, are the corrupt modern degenerate State's wet dream. I say keep 'em coming. Pun intended.

God will cut them down.

Aye. Seems we're being prepared for emergency measures. For "necessary sacrifices" &c.
