@chrisdeleon.bsky.social More people lean towards gambling & "speculative" markets when the job markets don't have enough examples of fulfilling implied promises (classism) of getting ahead with the efforts of contributing to the local communities. "Only way to compete is to find a way to cheat."
Bad brain is imagining a pattern in history where cultures start cannibalizing themselves when the "higher" classes become unattainable to the majority of the culture that it creates bigger gaps & more questionable requirements to reach a "upper" class status.
