@Jordi@mstdn.social Well corporations are entities according ot the supreme court, not people. Meaning they do have some rights that people would have, but they lack some as well. For example a corporation does not have the right to vote. I think thats overall a good ruling.

As for the amount of money it takes to compete, again that is a failing of the people. The fact that people are swayed by perceived popularity and advertisements is the only reason money gives you an edge at all. If they werent then money would be irrelevant and you wouldnt need any money to win. So again the fault in that seems to lie with the people, not the elite.
