This is a capitalism mythology parody inspired by Brewster's Millions.

It's also inspired by Dr. Evil.

"Lord Shiva (master of destruction) was contending with the vile predatory Xenomorph about the intrinsic virtue of capitalism as the giant 'Leviathan' of evil was approaching towards Earth during the Presidency of Donald Trump. Shiva wanted to prove to the Xenomorph that capitalism could be coordinated with democracy, but the Xenomorph held humanity in contempt for all its Wall Street corruption."

"Shiva was a big fan of Duke University men's college basketball and likened himself to the star-center of the team, the legendary Christian Laettner who made the game-winning shot against Kentucky in the NCAA tournament regional game which many consider to be the best college basketball game of all time. Shiva believed some day he'd find a special protégé/prodigy to be his 'sidekick' --- just like Laettner boasted the gifted and magical (but small-in-stature!) point-guard Bobby Hurley who carried his team to three seasons of extraordinary play. Shiva believed Laettner-Hurley and Duke symbolized all the glory of modern-era sports-marketing and hence the 'sportsmanship' of capitalism!"

"However, the Xenomorph knew that the women of Earth were dazzled by glamour and vanity and were ogling over fashion-models, movie superstars, rich businessmen, and even Wall Street tycoons like Gordon Gekko(!). The Xenomorph knew that to many human beings, Duke basketball was valued just as much as Vanity Fair, Victoria's Secret, and Volvo automobiles. The Xenomorph understood that the reason Leviathan was approaching Earth was because capitalism was simply luring men towards...gambling!"

"Fortunately, Americans embraced Donald Trump and Gordon Gekko just as much as they praised fantastic justice-idealism comic book 'superheroes' such as Richie Rich and the Dark Knight. The Dark Knight was also known as 'Batman' and dealt with criminal-insanity in the modern American city. Batman was a crusader who stood for everything Leviathan resented --- friendship, goodwill, and even loan-forgiveness!"

"Shiva knew he couldn't fight the Xenomorph on his own, so he asked Lord Krishna (a cherub-like master of negotiation) to assist him, and Krishna agreed and recruited the help of American super-celebrity Tom Cruise who was making a movie about a futuristic universe where competitive urges persisted. Shiva, Krishna, and Cruise destroyed the Xenomorph with a combination of weaponry, intellect, and political statements in the media."

"However, Leviathan still approached Earth, and no one was around to help human beings. Therefore, an idealistic FBI agent named Thomas Nash decided to start making Internet blogs about skeletons dancing idealistically about capitalism's merits. When Leviathan asked Nash about these odd and humorous skeleton-posts, Nash explained they represented all the 'innocence' of the capitalist-spirit --- the investment spirit (not the banking spirit). Leviathan realized humans were simply young and youthful and not really too 'tangled' in the problem of philosophical nihilism. Leviathan agreed to forgive 'TrumpUSA'!"

"Therefore, Shiva rented the NCAA college basketball film Blue Chips on Netflix, while Cruise enjoyed the same film on Netflix with fellow Hollywood movie-star Kurt Russell. Leviathan had departed, and the Xenomorph was destroyed, so even Lord Krishna (who was otherwise very paranoid about human vice) decided to unwind and watch Blue Chips himself (on Netflix!). God was pleased..."

GOD: It seems Shiva, Krishna, Cruise, and Nash have dealt with sin.
SATAN: Perhaps Leviathan is gone forever...
GOD: At least (for now), we have Blue Chips!
SATAN: That's a terrific American movie.
GOD: I wonder if Krishna and Russell will become friends.
SATAN: They both like Blue Chips the most.
GOD: Nash likes it too.
SATAN: True, but Nash is also a Batman-fanatic...
GOD: Correct; I think Shiva and Cruise will work with eco-activism.
SATAN: That may be true.
GOD: The Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation is a good eco-activism group.
SATAN: Leo DiCaprio is arguably as popular as Tom Cruise.
GOD: No, Cruise is a bigger star, but DiCaprio has been more eco-active.
SATAN: Perhaps capitalism truly is about negotiation...
GOD: That explains the 'complexity' of the World Bank!
SATAN: Donald Trump will have to be a real 'Wall Street President.'
GOD: I miss the early days of tech-capital intrigue (e.g., Napster!).
SATAN: Napster-intrigue has been replaced by anti-TrumpUSA protests.
GOD: In that case, the sci-fi horror film Alien: Covenant represents anarchy!
SATAN: I agree; that Ridley Scott film is all about capitalism (allegorically)...
