This is great, my biggest criticism is that the way the military are lined up preventing people outside the imperial core from even getting onto the pyramid at all makes it look like military are at the very bottom of the pyramid and could be misinterpreted.
Also is there a higher res version of this? I had to zoom in a bit to look at it which felt like it wasn’t quite high res enough.
is there a higher res version of this?
This is the best one I could find sorry.
Military and police sit above the proles since their entire existence is funded by proles to fight proles.
Needs waaaaay more cops.
Should be between every layer like cake frosting.
The levels, from what I can tell
- Multimillionaire/billionaire capitalists
- Bankers, royalty, bourgeois politicians
- Police, bourgeois media, religious leaders, judges
- Professional/salaried workers in the imperial core
- Service/gig workers in the imperial core
- The military
- Immigrants
- Proletariat in the imperial periphery
I don’t think the drawing is saying the military are that low, they just happen to be there because they’re keeping the periphery highly exploited for the benefit of everyone on the pyramid.
Good use of perspective with the people outside of the pyramid still reading as vertical tiers.
