Economic Cruelty

The deliberate and systemic design of an economy, that enriches a tiny elite—billionaires jet-setting the globe—while forcing billions into poverty, desperation, and cutthroat competition for scraps.

It’s the violence of capitalism laid bare: for every yacht, there’s a street fight over coins for coffee.

Not an accident, but a feature of a world that thrives on inequality, exploitation, and the suffering of the marginalized.
While billionaires party at their beach mansions, Uber, and the gig economy’s economic cruelty, encourage and reward, delivery riders crashing into each other, for a $5 order.

Ecoscience (Economic)

An area of study within metascience that examines science through the lens of economics—how economic forces shape scientific practice, and how science functions as an economic agent. Ecoscience asks how money flows through science: who funds research, how funding shapes agendas, how economic incentives influence scientific behavior, how scientific knowledge generates economic value. It also examines science as an economic actor—how universities function as economic institutions, how research drives innovation and growth, how scientific labor markets operate, how intellectual property regimes shape knowledge production. Ecoscience reveals that science is not just a pursuit of truth but an economic activity, embedded in markets, driven by incentives, and producing economic value alongside knowledge.
Ecoscience (Economic) Example: "Her ecoscience analysis showed how the shift to grant-based funding transformed university research—not just what got studied, but how scientists thought about their work, their careers, and their relationships with knowledge."

History of Economic Thought

A lesson for undergraduate economics classes. Economists those died hundreds of years ago can still fuck your mind because of this lesson. Some of them claim that value can only be determined by demand and others begin to blend them by being foolish, because, according to them value can only be determined by supply or something fucking else.

I used to think that Karl Marx is a merit figure in history because he tried to solve the poverty problem but now i think he's fucking crazy. You will see his name in everywhere if you are am economics student. In Sociology, in macroeconomics, in microeconomics, in comparative world economy, in politics...

The idea that your wallet is a primary tool for steering behavior. It examines how access to resources, job markets, debt, and consumer culture dictates your life choices and keeps you invested in the status quo. Control is achieved by making your survival and social worth dependent on playing by the system's economic rules.
Theory of Economic Social Control Example: The crushing weight of student loans and mortgage debt. This isn't just personal finance; it's a potent form of economic social control. Needing to make huge monthly payments makes you far less likely to risk your stable job by striking, protesting, or starting a radical business. It funnels you into a compliant, productive life path by leveraging your economic vulnerability.
