He doesn’t breathe. He doesn’t bleed. He doesn’t age. But he can sue you, fire you, poison you, and replace you. THE MAN MADE OF PAPER is the terrifying true story of how a legal illusion became the most powerful “person” on Earth. Born from charters, shielded by law, and fed by profit, this artificial entity now owns your labor, your government, your identity, and your future. From the rise of the East India Company to the algorithmic firms of today, JJ walks step by step through the machine’s construction. How corporations gained personhood, escaped liability, hijacked democracy, rewired your psychology, and finally replaced you altogether. This isn't a takedown. It’s an x-ray. Once you see the paper man, you’ll never unsee him.
