His body is nearly turned sideways, chin lifted and grinning at the camera, resting his weight on his right elbow with his left hand clasped loosely over his resting right wrist. Italicized text upon this propaganda poster reads: “RONALD REAGAN speaks out against SOCIALIZED MEDICINE”]

    I think unfortunately the “illuminati” is a lot more boring than that. It’s just a group of career ladder climbers hell bent on staying close to power and/or those who wield it.

    We like to think the only people that would do something like that would be evil men and women part of secret societies with global ambitions but it’s just these greedy fuckers who need validation in a way none of us could ever dream of.

      These two things are not mutually exclusive.

      Those ladder climbers are evil people who are part of (not so secret) societies like the International Monetary Fund and the World Economic Forum, which have global ambitions that can be accurately summed up as “get rich and fuck the poors”.

        That’s fair, I get what you mean. I guess I just think it’s less lizard people in robes eating adrenochrome and more bureaucracy than anything.
