yeah people who would theoretically get THAT powerful wouldn't just start to play nice when "the group" got to something manageable like 5-10 people/families or whatever. that drive would keep going, b/c that's the personality type

This.

It isn't possible for one person or one cabal to control everything. But people with a lot of money, visibility, and connections can push outcomes in the direction they prefer.

for sure. some of these are documented and not secret

like when soros fricked over the UK for billions with currency manipulation/trading

or big corporations doing nasty shite in developing countries to secure some sort of resource

or hell, i think the mob still basically controls napoli

You don't have to be an Alex Jones nut to think something like in the OP is going down.

I think you'd have to be pretty naive to think the super wealthy and powerful families in this world don't pull strings on major world events.

I mean, much of it isn't really hidden if you take the time to look into it.

Is it the "Illuminati" or some lizard people? No, but there's a whole level of workings going on in this world that you and me are meant to have no clue about.

no it's pretty clear that certain elite organizations operate in closed circles. If anything, in a post-911 world they operate much more openly than they used to.

But the Alex Jones crowd takes it to an entirely different level.

Of course they do. You're always going to have those nuts.

But:

is surely comparable to:

shadowy elites that control world events?


The OP didn't really say anything outlandish.

I won't be intimidated. I'll tell everyone the members too.

Absolutely...there is a documentary that gives a glimpse of what they do to control pretty much everything in the world.

It's not a conspiracy that the most wealthy/elite meet and discuss world events/problems and try to reach a consensus on how to address them.

I believe rich people know other rich people and hook them up with great opportunities to make even more money.

Nothing too surprising about any of that

I think if there were such a group, there would be another group that would form to try to stop that group from controlling things. If one group controlled the world, cultures, language, currency, etc would be more unified.
