The public would rather watch a few rich parasitic egos get crushed, than watch hundreds fail at the same struggle as the rest of us just barely treading water.

People have no perspective of what it means to have a population of over seven billion. The 2023 daily average statistical deaths are 332,648 per day. The news as reported by corporate media is just entertainment. It is such a small and irrelevant slice of what is really happening world wide that it is virtually irrelevant.
