"It’s hard not to be bitter, less about this specific situation or a lifetime of ā€œthese situations,ā€ but that so many of you like I suffer and have our lives ruined because of financial precarity, because of our economic realities pressing us down with no option to breathe, to just be."

I couldn't have said it better, Kyle. I empathize completely. We are definitely not alone.

ā€œAnother product built off of our future being taken from us, as we abandon self-awareness to adore the rich from our slums, to add another view count to the reality show that is their lifeā€ ~ oh my good god, this whole piece. Pitch perfect. I do feel a shift coming. I think we’re collectively (earth included) sick of this shit. That’s why the rich riching has ramped up, they’re trying frantically to maintain control and dominance, because they can feel it slipping.

I like the dehumanization piece. As I recently wrote, all this dehumanization (or as I say, all this indifference of humans being trampled by Big Tech) makes sense when communal love is not a fundamental pillar of society anymore and has not been since at least the '90s, maybe earlier.
