Preeeeetty sure you actually don't agree if you understood his point, which is that the mega-rich within our society are buying up the flow of information and creating a disinformation cartel.

You think the Deep State controls the billionaires; Greg is arguing that the billionaires control the Deep State.

I've heard Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk called many things, but "Marxist" definitely isn't one of them. Your tinfoil hat is showing again.

Jeff Bezos doesn't even pay his taxes, and makes a living off crippling small businesses and exploiting what remains.

If you think he favours Marxist wealth redistribution I have a bridge to Pluto to sell you.

LMAO holy fuck you don't even know what words mean.

Globalist capitalism is irreconcilable with Marxism; Bezos wants profits, not "from each according to his ability, to each according to his need".

The last thing Bezos wants is equality of outcome; he wants to be the richest man on the planet. He's a globalist capitalist, but a capitalist nonetheless.
