    And every capitalist country slowly removes these benefits until major uprisings.

    We figured out a long time ago that there’s only two things people need in order to keep them happy:
    Bread and Circuses.
    As long as people have food on their table and a source of entertainment you can take everything else away and they’ll be content enough to not revolt.
    But it’s important to not take everything else away at once either, that’s why they chisel away at them until only those two are left.

    Oh for sure, but I do wonder long they’ll drag out the “missing” narrative.
    Eventually they’ll have to acknowledge he’s dead so they can appoint his successor.
    They’re probably still arguing over whether they’re going to blame Israel or The US.
