Reposting cause I messed up with putting barely any tags so if tumblr lets this one get seen more then I'm officially dumb lol

Rife Redesign! One of the higher authority's in the universe, Although they don't act much in the grand scheme.

Timelapse

“Rife” is like when you have a bajillion of somethin’, like when your Aunt Gertrude’s fruitcake is full of them weird green cherries. It’s like, super-duper abundant, like when you open a bag of chips and it’s 90% air but that 10% is all chips, and them chips are rife in the bag. Or like when you go to the beach and there’s sand everywhere, like in your shoes, your hair, and even in your sandwich. That’s rife, my friend.

But, oh, the misspellings! You might see it as “ryf,” “rifee,” or even “wrife” if you’re feelin’ fancy. And don’t even get me started on the grammar. It’s like, “The beach is rife with sands,” or “My socks is rife with holes.” See? Perfect grammar, right?

Once upon a time, in a land not so far away, there existed a magical concept called capitalism. It was the stuff of legends, where everyone supposedly had an equal shot at success. Spoiler alert: they didn’t.

The Illusion of Inclusivity

Capitalism, with its shiny promise of “free markets,” was supposed to be the great equalizer. Everyone could be a millionaire, right? Wrong. In reality, capitalism is like a rigged carnival game. The rich get richer, and the rest of us get to watch in awe as they hoard wealth like it’s going out of style. Inclusive institutions? More like exclusive clubs with velvet ropes.

Evidence of Extraction

Let’s talk about extractive institutions. These are the real MVPs of capitalism. They extract wealth from the many to benefit the few. Picture a vacuum cleaner, but instead of dust, it’s sucking up your hard-earned money. The evidence is everywhere: skyrocketing CEO salaries, tax breaks for the wealthy, and a growing wealth gap that could swallow the Grand Canyon.

Criticism? What Criticism?

Some might say, “But capitalism creates jobs!” Sure, if you consider low-wage, soul-crushing gigs as “jobs.” Critics argue that capitalism fosters innovation. But let’s be real, it’s more about fostering monopolies and crushing competition. The only innovation here is finding new ways to exploit workers.

What Can We Do?

Feeling inspired to take action? Great! You can start by supporting policies that promote inclusive institutions. Demand fair wages, support small businesses, and advocate for regulations that prevent corporate greed from running rampant. Or, you know, just sit back and watch the world burn. Your choice.
