No way.
When we meet aliens from outer space, we'll yell:
We poison our air and water to weed out the weak!
We set off fission bombs in our only biosphere!
We nailed our god to a stick!
Don't fuck with the human race!

United States of The One Percent wrote:What are some common attitudes in your nation toward the One Percent, that is, the small group of individuals who control an outsize portion of the world's wealth (35 percent in US-TOP), own all politicians and judges and so make all the rules, controlling every important aspect of the lives of the 99 percent below them? Though not exhaustive, these seem to be the most common in US-TOP:
Admiration: Many Usians admire their One Percent. Since We enjoy so much power, influence and economic freedom, they feel We must have worked hard, made intelligent decisions and profited from Our discipline and dedication. These see Our stratospheric income and wealth as well-deserved and, while not aspiring to more in their own lives, are happy to point to Us as examples of the correctness of Our system and the opportunities they believe are available to all.
Emulation: No less than the Admiration group, these love and honor the One Percent. However, they also seek to learn from Our example. They often do extensive research into one or more of Us and seek to apply the lessons they feel they learn to their own lives. Under their breaths, they are often heard to mutter something like, "what would Buffer do?" or "now, when a similar thing happened to TIm Ronmey, he did..." They tend to blame their misfortunes on their not following Our example faithfully enough.
Worship: The constant refrain of this group is phrases such as "job creators," "entrepreneurs," "leaders of the economy" and similar praise for Us. Most common among politicians. Should their faith in Us begin to flag, We remind them of how much Our money means to their chances for continued employment.
Grudging Acceptance: Members of this group have given up on attaining Our level of power and influence, but do not go so far as to believe We are a bad influence on society. Defenders of the free market, on the grounds that "everyone has a right to the products of their labor," are frequently found here.
Envy: Like the previous group, these have given up hope of improving their social and economic status, but not their desire to do so. Many in this group play Our lotteries regularly.
Ineffective Opposition: Our most virulent opponents obsessively collect, analyze and cite economic statistics, particularly those involving economic inequality. They may write thick books, hold protests, write their representatives in Congress, become professors of economics, join the Peace Corps or take other actions they believe will cut into Our advantage. Some may even run for and win political office; however, after a few elections cycles most move into the Worship or Grudging Acceptance categories, particularly if they advance to a higher position. Since We own everything, including all politicians, and make all the rules, all opposition to Us is ineffective by definition.
As noted, Usians may, and often do, occupy different categories at different times.
