Why Society Admires Billionaires | A Marxist perspective

Why do we admire billionaires while millions struggle to survive? 🤔
In this video, I break down why society worships billionaires, how capitalism shapes our mindset, and why Karl Marx’s ideas are still relevant today. From wealth inequality to class struggle, this video questions the myths around “self-made” billionaires and explores how economic systems influence power, labor, and inequality.

This is not about hating success — it’s about understanding how wealth is created, who benefits from it, and why billionaires are often treated like heroes. Drawing from Marxist theory, modern capitalism, and real-world examples, this video challenges mainstream narratives and encourages critical thinking.
