Another underrated post. But perhaps that is a good thing.

A change from looking for a leader to becoming one, with no reliance on the crutch of status granted by grasping at the crumbling existing edifice.

Klaus Schwab, or rather his ‘guru’ Noah Yuval Harari, is right - most people are ‘useless eaters’. It’s a bitter pill. One day you wake up and realise that the people are never going to rise up and overthrow their evil overlords. It reminds me of the scene in ‘Withnail and I’ when Uncle Monty reflects ‘it’s the most devastating moment in a young man’s life,when he quite reasonably says to himself “I shall never play the Dane”. It is at that moment that all ambition ceases to exist’.
