That axiom is no longer valid this time around because the underlying conditions have changed.
The difference I see this time is that the big boys can't just TAKE the money from the plebs. They can only BUY it from the plebs or EXCHANGE it with the plebs.
The plebs can always HODL and/or work for more from other plebs.
The game has changed substatively for the better...
I'd suggest that you listen to @Jeff Booth on this topic. (Cheers, Jeff! You are much appreciated!)

I'm presently listening to it for the third time hoping that more details will sink in.๐๐๐ป๐ฅ๐
I agree with this as well. I HOPE thatโs what plays out.
At the end of the day, though my worry is that too many bitcoiners discount the power and persuasion of massive global centralized entities and corporations part theyโre going to play moving forward. Humans love do you have leaders, all of human history has showed us that.
I do agree this is the best shot weโve ever had to leveling the playing field and having a true meritocracy play out. I guess my broader point is that we all canโt just sit back and hope that it plays out that way. We must be actively part of the change we wish to see. The good guys with the wealth transferred to them must be an active part of that future society and shaping it.
