Shitty Ask Lemmy

It’s actually kind of a nonsensical chaotic mess of random people exercising control at every conceivable level of society

There are certain instances of control you can trace and track through time and space like when persons with incredible individual power do concrete things we generally feel confident knowing who did what in those cases but even then it’s limited to the specific events in question not some enduring notion of global control

But if you look to the trump administration or something it’s basically every single person exercising whatever control they can get away with and not really having any loyalty or shared goals/purpose

Trump doesn’t care he likes watching all his underlings fight among each other for power so really nobody is running anything there
