I’d say it’s more like disguised feudalism. We’re all peasants for the few kings and queens that have all the money at the top.

Honestly one of the reasons I fell for a pyramid scheme coming out of high school.

A friend invited me and I went to shit on it and get him out, but the main guy’s whole thing was “everything is a pyramid scheme, at least here you have the chance to build a pyramid beneath you.”

Obviously there were other reasons as old as time, but the argument of “so what, your ‘regular job’ is already a pyramid scheme you can’t win” was pretty rattling to a teenager in 2011.

Atleast it works unlike covert fascist ideas like Marxism/Communism
