They're absolutly not "taken out of context". His intended message is represented well in summary.

I'd love it if people cared enough to read the long form. But, the idea can be spread much more efficiently with a two sentence good faith summary:

Some wish to tell you what to think. Others wish to help you reason out your own answers.

A likely good next step for you would be to study the stock market at least to the nuance of options trading and algorithmic trading. If the dots don't connect then fill the gap with Capital until it does.

His expectation that most would understand what he meant by, "I'll never tell you who to vote for. And, if I do, don't listen to me."

The species is a very old design relative other species. It's had much more time to rise through the ranks.

My point was that the individual is powerless. Your only counterargument is "neoliberal" ad hominem. That's not going to work, particularly not when speaking to a data analyst with more than a decade of experience.

The nation is 250 years old. Things aren't going so well for us. There won't be a USD in 120-130 years.

Our team sailed our project into rough waters. For some reason one team member absolutely could not understand why we needed to steer the bow of our ship into the waves. Despite every educational effort she kept insisting that we needed to take the waves broadside.

Then, one day she tried to grab hold of the helm. So, I wrapped my arms around her as tight as I could, told her we'd die together, and jumped off the fucking boat.

It's all bullshit because the corporate compiles the statistics and is responsible for holding themselves accountable. Succinctly, if the statistics don't support the predetermined narrative then the input data will be cherry picked or outright altered until they do support the narrative. In simile it's like the police policing themselves.

If there's more nuanced questions I'll serve as the grapevine to my mother, a recently retired VP HR, or my wife who's somehow managed to find a Director of HR role in a NPO where she's empowered to represent the employee.

It's a corporate program. It therefore achieved very little. The short-term situation won't change much except that the victims no longer have the false comfort of corporate DEI. They'll need to face the truth: If they wish to protect themselves then they must work together, hopefully forming a union.
