The most “powerful man” in the world (as defined and nurtured by neoliberal value system) and the most “richest man” in the world (as defined and nurtured by neoliberal value system) are going for each other’s jugular. The ramification is exponential to what is happening on regular basis across the world. These are worst people sorted by the system to ace itself as a self justification, they reflect the crass system. Juxtapose this with degrading of atmosphere and polluting of river, land, air, water, silence and darkness, ensuing breakdown of climate and biodiversity loss, also lack of trust in insular media, the astounding lack of responsibility. These are very much the byproduct of transactional value system, a general lack of self awareness and existential humility. The crass is reaching a critical point, the rabid frothing of neoliberal muck is hitting the roof. As climate breakdown accelerates crude ego maniacal humans are in muck fight, the system has made them ineffective to have even basic sense. Self preservation of the system is at the expense of life on planet.
For last many decades every transaction is valued on profit (or power accrued which pave way to greed), success in these anchored meanings of deal, fantastical views of religion synced to create world of debauchery, a compelling exceptionalism and supremacist presence. These encroach institutions as extraction including education (classified as human resource) and nature (classified as natural resource) attuned to greed, acquisition and ease of consumption. Words like progress and development were redefined on the parameter of neoliberal capitalism and its egomaniacal assuredness. They undermined democratic institutions, transgressed ethics, nurtured feudal regressive values and enthused hunter gatherer juvenile mindsets.
