Step 1: Set up every employee beyond the rich to have to constantly worry about healthcare, housing, food, etc, and it’s always tied to your employment
Step 2: Ensure these systems have no fallback so without a job you will just die
Step 3: Ensure that those who are working blame the class struggle on the “freeloaders” or “illegals” not holding a legal job rather than the wealthy who have built the system
Step 4: Make it so that while you are working to seize power, said people know that you control whether or not they will have a job, and therefore it’s literally a life or death choice to fight back or roll over
Step 5: Seize power. Those who roll over keep their mediocre healthcare, housing, paycheck (for now). The others you have the power to oust from employment, therefore becoming the enemies from step 3, keeping the struggle between everyone you step on as you do so
Step 6: Rape all of them. Dismantle all the services, minimize the chances of them ever fighting back because now they’re enemies of the state, keep them hating each other. Take whatever money was pooled for their benefit for the rich. Reward those who turn in anyone who speaks out with pittances. Turn the system into neofeudalism.
It goes on from there, but it’s a pretty obvious playbook. It just sucks that so many people willingly fell for the “us vs them” tribalism as the corporatocracy took control
