@Stigma dude, that's some pretty in your face propaganda to just willfully absorb uncritically.

Certain figures were pushing the "Violent Left did this " literally minutes after the news broke. That didn't surprise me, but what does is the sheer number of people still banging that same drum no matter how many details about the shooter emerge that flat out don't fit that narrative.

Suppose this was a planned hit intended to provoke a civil war between average Americans? Allowing oneself to get provoked into joining it would be a most consequential Blue Pill, would it not?

@Stigma I'm really happy for you Brits. Here's hoping you can take your country back.

A stupendous photo taken at the rally in London over the weekend.

I've not said anything over the weekend, because the death of Charlie Kirk rattled me in a way I didn't expect. The footage of his murder was visceral. Words failed me.

Words did not fail the "people" that hated Charlie Kirk.

Sam Hyde has verbalised my anger, better than I am able.

What's going on?

Unless something happens to interrupt and redirect society, these trends are going to lead to a complete centralization of power and zero ability to negotiate from normal everyday people. This will necessarily be followed by global *"enshittification" and a massive drop in human QoL.

The UK government is already using the OSA to aggressively demand the identities of Wikipedia contributors. Wikipedia lost the case.

Only cowards and fools would conflate wickedness for niavity. Time, trial, and challenge will reveal which the video author can be considered soon enough.

@WarnerBro

These trends lead towards an IoT (Internet of Things) enabled lifestyle where neither the home nor the devices actually belong to the user — you will own nothing and will be happy with a LaaS (Life-as-a-Service) lifestyle

I don't have an answer for you, but I wanted to chime in that I chime l absolutely hate that.

I want to modify my things, my way.

@MentORPHEUS No, his phraseology is apt for the point he's wishing to make. Marx espouses the state owning the means of production. The means of production owning individuals could be said to be a "reverse-engineering" of Marx. At least that's what I think he meant.

@WarnerBro

Are the corporates reverse-engineering Marx

Good post up till this point. Curious if you have read enough of Marx's writing to make an informed critique and rejection of it, or are merely using the word as a stand in for "ideology we don't like. "
