Dinner for few - A metaphor

An endless vicious circle?

Yes, it's the endless vicious circle that we're curently in! The society has made it its duty to feed the politicians, bureaucrats and the rich who are insatiable and chained by their ambitions.
Everyone seems to be overlooking the fact that the system may keep repeating but the resources that feed it do not. They keep destroying the whole of what we have for one cycle. Sure there's still a lot to exploit. But everything has an end, it'll also run out and what happens then, I wonder?
This video is a fantastic metaphor for where society is right now. It’s so deep! Here are my projections to the symbolism. I hope I'm just right.
  1. The pigs were created from the cats.
  2. The cat that saw the snake/chain was separated from the other cats.
  3. The pigs destroyed the building gradually by eating little bits of it.
  4. When the cats became too hungry, they became one in a tiger and ate the pigs.
  5. The cook killed the tiger & separated the cats when it was asleep.
  6. The cats were satisfied with the crumbles they were fed until there was no food left.
Cats = Masses/Common man
Pigs = Corrupt Politicians, Corrupt Religious Leaders, and Corrupt Businessmen/Institutions
Tiger = A revolution
Building = Society
Chain/Snake = Greed
Cook = Life/Circumstances
Am I right on the philosophy side of things from the video? Am I right?

Tell me, how would you narrate this video to someone?

But that's not what I'm here for, the bigger question is —
Is Bitcoin our last hope? Is Bitcoin the tiger?
this territory is moderated
After watching the video, I went into some blank spaces into my head. What a masterpiece!
For your questions, I don't think I'm so eligible. But the video has stirred me from inside.
reply
It has stirred me as well. I'm thinking more about the cycle. Once omitted, the pigs again form up, again begin eating, the same goes on and goes on!
reply
I too interpret the video as you do. Yes, Bitcoin is absolutely the tiger! Even if the richest castes in the world want to get their hands on it. Unfortunately Bitcoin won't free everyone, only those who will be able to enter it as soon as possible and the masses aren't ready yet. But one thing is certain: Bitcoin will destroy the traditional fiat system.
reply
What about the endless vicious circle? I see many vultures already circling around for the dying fiat.
But once the fiat dies, can you be cocksure that we won't ever see the pigs with chains?
reply
In my opinion, pigs on chains will not disappear! They will find a way to survive what is coming... because sooner rather than later the Fiat system and its uncontrolled printing will collapse!! We could say that Bitcoin is the tiger, but we must continue to care for and maintain that Tiger!! And we will have a future, I assure you!!!
reply
What do you mean 'won't disappear'? Will they not die with the death of fiat? Will they even return after the death of fiat or when the Bitcoin standard rules the world?
reply
Exactly! They will want to come back when Bitcoin is obviously already established as the most powerful asset in all of history!! In fact it already is.. but the moment that dying Fiat system collapses.. it will be even more so!!

Bitcoin is the emergency exit
reply
How does the 'emergency exit' occur when the whole process goes on and on? I'm afraid we won't need only one emergency exit!
reply
I find the philosophy you have put forward incredible, if Bitcoin is that revolution that is already underway and that has allowed us to wake up from the deception of Fiat money.
reply
If Bitcoin overturn, that it will, do you think it's gonna be a permanent solution. Won't we ever see pigs with chains again?
reply
remember the kittens then turned into the next set of pigs, just like in a revolution when the new class emerges and oppresses a different class
bitcoin can help people achieve financial freedom and savings, but it's not impossible that there could be an elite class of bitcoiners that control the top % of wealth.
plus, the current rich / elite have the ability to stack harder than anyone else, they just don't bother because they are already so rich that they are sleeping on it
