You're not wrong about capitalist systems favouring the ultra wealthy. As I've outlined in my article, several pointless jobs are created in order to maintain the status quo and not bring about any change.

But as I've implied, I think the system has changed into what it is and it wasn't like that as much at certain points. I think in the 1950s and 60s where billionaires weren't even real or possible because laws were put in place to prevent what we're seeing now. I personally can't speak much to it beyond that since I wasn't even born back then.

As far as being controlled more and being silenced, I think that's not a thing just yet. We're basically at a point where key people get to decide the narrative. Even though ultra rich people have incredible resources, they make up a very small percentage of the world. We always have the number advantage but it's more of a matter of working together to fight back in a peaceful manner against them. That's very difficult when you have the media, and the government - who are very wealthy themselves - telling us there's nothing to see and are persuasive about it.
