It is pretty amazing how the left went from pro civil rights and my body my choice to pushing censorship, masks, and the useless at best toxic at worst shots.
David Graeber wrote about them... Bullshit jobs. They merely exist to counter other bullshit jobs. Law , scientism, politics, economics... All subjective made up invisible bullshit.
And yes, people somehow still defend the wealthy because they cannot understand that to become wealthy (whether through royalty or scheming) one must take from others.
There's no free money. They are the parasites of society.
The vaccines reminded me of how the third reich Germany happened. The brown shirts were the fanatics that supported the Nazi party, as their jobs were important to it.
But as soon as the Nazis took more power, they sold out the brown shirts with the SS taking over.
That's why we see even celebrities and semi-wealthy influencers of society getting sick with turbo cancer.
These sycophants were sold out by the people that they idolized!
Yep. Graeber has influenced my thinking. I stumbled on him late in life, but better late than never. And then he goes and exits the stage just when we needed him again!
The parasites, by definition, are always using whoever they can to secure their position.
I had a perhaps meaningful middle class job as a music therapist..Though NHS mental health is pretty persecutory in soft and hard ways...Redundancy found me, care of the smug self serving PMC.. Thank fuck for that. Those last few months yielding a heartfelt solidarity with the patients I worked with.
The worst bullshit jobs are the ones that interfere with real jobs. These bullshit jobs are the norm in the upper strata of councils.

Very informative article with great detail, thank you for sharing. You’ve clearly deeply researched the subjects but like so many other substack articles on this subject, you stop short of identifying particular groups that are obviously and glaringly involved in the ‘they’ and the controlling.
Thanks for the kind words. As far as naming/identifying the 'they' groups, that wasn't really the aim of this piece, and I think I stated that when I said:
"Approaching the question through the lens of class is a way of analysing the mess we’re in from a systems or structural perspective, as opposed to listing organisations, people, victims and dastardly acts."
I was hoping to convey, through a rough-and-ready class analysis that the 'they' is basically any grouping formed by the concentration of wealth in order to advance its agenda of wealth and power consolidation. Hence my definition of ruling class:
"the oligarchy, aka the plutocracy, aka the Owners and Controllers of Global Financial Capital (OCGFC); aka the leaders of ‘they’."
If you see Big Money behind an organisation or corrupting an organisation, that's the 'they' at work. It then becomes obvious who the particular groups are, and many other writers whose work I rely on have done fantastic work on exposing all the nefarious groups and entities.
I'm not shy to list them and talk about them. I just think it's pretty obvious and very extensively covered. People like Whitney Webb, James Corbett, Paul Cudenec, Jacob Nordangard have gone into great depth on the individuals, groups, entities etc and I often cross reference their meticulous work in my own pieces to make the points I want to make.
That said, I am planning to do a piece soon on the Bank for International Settlements, the organisation I call 'the head of the snake'.
My preferred catch-all for 'they' is the Owners and Controllers of Global Financial Capital. But one has to understand that this is not a single registered company with 3 directors. It has a complex network of organisations and people that it uses and to which it effectively delegates its control agenda. There really is no simple answer to 'they' that will fit every circumstance at all times. 'They' is the WHO, Big Pharma and public health regulatory bodies when it comes to pandemics. 'They' is the UN, the IPCC and pretty much every western government when it comes to Agenda 2030 and the climate scam. But it's also the WHO. 'They' is the silicon valley Big Tech monopolies and firms like Palantir when it comes to Digital ID. And on, and on, and on!
It is very clearly obviously not too much for substack, and it obviously isn't too much for open conversation, as we are openly discussing it here. And it's obviously not so emotionally loaded or protected from question. You just appear to want an extremely simply answer to a complex question! Have you not read other substacks to get a sense of all the different manifestations of 'they' that are out there? If not, I recommend signing up to the ones I've listed above and following them over time. Thanks!
Please accept my apologies, I didn’t communicate clearly what I meant. I wasn’t asking for a deeper explanation of who the ‘they’ is. I’m very much aware.
I’ve made the mistake of assuming that we’ve both come to the same conclusions after researching this subject of ‘they’ to their source of people at the top of their hierarchy’s.
After researching this subject and researching all the networks and organisations you’ve mentioned, the same group of people are at the top of these hierarchy’s or in positions of influence. They are bound by a common thread. They follow one religion.

Same here. But what he said was already known to me.
I found the stock market and real estate booms to be so stupid. Most of the wealth was "created" for stupid jobs in banking, finance, and real estate.
I couldn't comprehend why my neighbors and co workers cheered the rise in house prices, as their property taxes kept climbing.
It was a pyramid scheme that's collapsed but kept alive today with funny money.
The American people are awesome but there's a huge dynamic of stupid peasant sycophant among them.
These days, that's being challenged as we no longer blindly idolize Philantropsychopaths like Musk and Bill Gates.
I was really worried before covid... But now I'm glad that many are catching onto this scam of finance capitalism, along with scientism in medicine.
Brilliant post (yet again!) Love the Jazz Hands secret handshake idea - I'll start practicing 👐 👐

Funny and tragic!

Thank you for taking the time to respond and explain.
The ‘they’ label is needed to identify the group but it is also too vague.
When talking about this subject I too use ‘they’ but if we are hoping to effect change I believe we have to be more specific.
What specific group is at the source of the ‘they’? That’s THE question.
Is the answer too much for substack?
Is the answer too much for open conversation?
Is the answer so emotionally loaded that it is protected from question?
My preferred catch-all for 'they' is the Owners and Controllers of Global Financial Capital. But one has to understand that this is not a single registered company with 3 directors. It has a complex network of organisations and people that it uses and to which it effectively delegates its control agenda.

Right! I think I understand you now...
And as he said: beware the wolf in sheep’s clothing.
