Uninformed HNers grouse endlessly about the wealthy and megacorps in without understanding their actual psychology, motivations, and sources of power/income. Then they are left wondering time after time why all their campaigning and efforts against them comes to naught.
There’s nothing to understand. Power begets power and self interests are pursued to the detriment of others partly because individuals have limited understanding of the full system and partly because of plain selfishness. You can debate how big each part is, but there’s a systemic issue here.
