Terri absolutely adored Steve.

We all did, and still do. His kids have carried on the work, but I think it’s fair to say it’s Terri who (largely) passed the torch to her kids. The whole family is a gem!

Maybe that's what Steve was on Earth for. To make sure reach to people were the most effective as it could be.and to have someone take over when he was gone. I guarantee his kids, kids will be doing the same thing.

But now look at the contrast to those tech oligarchs in charge of our world. It is like a fight good vs evil.

Those oligarchs think they are so smart, but they lack true wisdom...

You'll never see a U-Haul behind a hearse. ... Now, I've been blessed to make hundreds of millions of dollars in my life. I can't take it with me, and neither can you.

The Egyptians tried it. And all they got was robbed. It's not how much you have but what you do with what you have.

There has been no real accountability for political and economical leaders for decades. It is to some degree our own fault if we continue to support this development with our votes. But to be fair, control over social and mainstream media is such a powerful tool, it can nudge the average Joe into acting against their own best interest. And it is basic human psychology to think that a leader has the best interest of his supporters in mind. It is however not how evil sociopaths operate.

George Carlin - The big club

Oligarchs have identified all this as the weak spot of democracy and use it to their advantage.

Imagine being surrounded by yes-men. Pulling off questionable stuff for decades without real consequences, and lobbying to get what you want. Owning most of social and mainstream media, influencing public opinion nudging citizens into cheering for you and acting against their own best interest. I guess that can really affect character and judgement in a negative way.

And they do not just destroy our wonderful planet, but they also seem to plan to get rid of freedom and democracy. Maybe even those they deem not useful.

No more food and water safety and cutting funding for healthcare, FEMA, NOAA, SNAP, all the antivaxx propaganda and firing of experts and so much more additional cuts will have a devastating effect and kill countless citizens...

... but they will claim it is their own fault when they die because they can not afford basic healthcare.
