Pronouns: he/him.
True. That decision really paid off. Honestly, I think that having a sovereign internet ecosystem is gonna be on par with having nukes as a prerequisite for a sovereign nation. We’ll have to see if other great powers are gonna ditch Statesian services in this century. Iran and Russia seem to be heading towards China’s path, at least.
Yeah. You are right. Capitalists do their best to make us believe that there is no hope of any better system even though they can’t stop creating their own gravediggers. Heck, USA had near total monopoly on power in the post-Soviet era and they managed to fuck it up.
But as you said, technology seems “magical” in a way. It’s hard for me to remember that it isn’t.
Aight, just a honest question: are we fucked?
Not exaggerating. I never thought that the Internet would be so entrenched in US MIC. Genuinely felt chills from this. I mean, how do you even fight this? I am optimistic about the future and I know that this isn’t an invincible enemy but I don’t know how a future revolution would happen under so much surveillance.
