Yeah but is buying the popular ETF’s giving our money to Vanguard/ Blackrock aka tools of our own enslavement?
Investment ... stocks to buy?

Tons of ETF's out there that aren't Blackrock or Vanguard if that's your angle.
Lots of places to put your money though; precious metals, crypto, individual stocks, bonds, real-estate, etc. Keeping it in a bank account or in your mattress probably aren't wise options.

It doesn't make for the most comfortable mattress either.

There are a lot of things around us happening that we cannot control. If we are getting gamed you may as well get rich while it happens. As said above there are a lot of ways to invest but to be diversified the stock markets need to be one of those tools.
If a 0.2% fee ETF isn’t your thing go to your bank and pay them 1.5 to 2.5% fee for the same returns… They are all praying on your money.
As others mentioned there’s tons of ETF’s out there. Do whatever you are comfortable with. BMO has some good ones.

Essentially. HGD is what I'm in, it's a leveraged inverse ETF that tracks Canadian Gold Miners. Basically I turn a profit when gold miners shares drop.
I don't intend to hold for much longer though. Long term I think you're right and both precious metals and their respective miners will increase in value.
