weird tranny bathroom shit is done on purpose to specifically make people not vote for dems. The rich who run this shit want tax cuts so they prefer repubs to win elections. They don't want leftwing economic policies.

I think that people's ultimate motivation is never money. Money is simply a means to an end, and that end is usually driven by religious, spiritual or ideological concerns. Sure there is some element of personal greed (for material goods), but beyond a certain level of wealth the goal is usually (and billionaires will talk about this openly) to "have an impact" and "leave a legacy" on society. For a lot of billionaires the "weird tranny bathroom shit" really is their ideological goal, brought about by a deep-seated faith in total liberalism; a liberation of man from all worldly constraints. For others, it's an indirect, subversive way of destroying the civilization they despise - without a strong foundation of faith & family, Western civilization will eventually collapse - they see this, and wish to hasten the process.

sure it'd be accurate to say power. the rich have power to print money so they have an infinite amount of it but they want to control your mind.

Power is still a means to an end as well. They want to control your mind - but how do they want to control it is the pertinent question. I think ultimately it comes down to some kind of religious or ideological motivation, not power unto itself.

"Now I will tell you the answer to my question. It is this. The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power, pure power. What pure power means you will understand presently. We are different from the oligarchies of the past in that we know what we are doing. All the others, even those who resembled ourselves, were cowards and hypocrites. The German Nazis and the Russian Communists came very close to us in their methods, but they never had the courage to recognize their own motives. They pretended, perhaps they even believed, that they had seized power unwillingly and for a limited time, and that just around the corner there lay a paradise where human beings would be free and equal. We are not like that. We know what no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power. Now you begin to understand me."
