It seems like media is controlled by a small number of people, not sure if they have anything in common.

They do.

They're capital owners.

Yes, I agree.

May be I should have added "..." or made it more clear, that yes they do share things in common.

My fault on that end, thanks for pointing it out!

Normally when people talk about a "small cabal of elites ruling the world" it's a dogwhistle for "the jews".

That is a thing to watch out for... Thanks for pointing it out!

I was talking about 99% vs. 1% protests that were huge a while ago.

Framing working class vs. wealthy class.

Just to reiterate - if thinly veiled antisemitism wasn't your intent, you may want to phrase your subtle implications differently in the future.

Ah, another thing ro watch out for. Thanks for letting me know!

Remember 99% vs. 1% protests a while ago, they were pretty big.

Billionaires and wealthy class are the groups most people think about.

Working class vs. wealthy class

edit: wording and topic

I get it and apologize for my tone. I wasn't yet convinced at that point that it wasn't subtly veiled anti-semitism. Sorry that my internet cynicism sometimes runs high. 🙂

Thank you for the explaination!

Yes, we all can get too much into cynicism when talking in the interwebs!

Have a great day and thanks again!
