Late stage capitalism
It’s relentless. Every fucking thing is made wrong. Design, which is the practice of making things easy to use or understand, not look pretty, is dead.
That’s not just America
Capitalism
I have to say when the infamous Tucker Carlson and Shawn Ryan, spec ops guy, start saying what the public is thinking and start admitting their mistakes of who they endorsed and the error of their ways… then I think yeah we’re fucked.
I really liked Shawn Ryan’s interviews because he definitely has that read the room personality and matches it. It’s interesting to see him actually talk about what he actually thinks. In some of his recent videos he straight up said that yeah we’ve been lied to and everything is a scam. I think it shows how vulnerable we are as a society. We want to believe what these politicians are saying their going to do and in reality they don’t do anything or make it worse.
If any government had any god damn balls, advertising would be heavily regulated and your personal data would be wholly under your control.
Amen, brotha! I am so sick of being solicited, constantly.
Welcome to the world brought to you by corporations, who exist to extract wealth, for the owners, who do not have a limit to their desire for more power, to feed their malignant narcissism. Selfishness on a grand scale is the only reason for the enshitification of existence.
I’ve ranted about this for years. I’ve had a bad streak of luck the past 8 years, and everything I’ve tried to do to improve my situation has just become an increasingly horrible cesspool of predatory horseshit. Every computer application, service, university, and social program is so much worse than they were 10-15 years ago, and I hate it.
“Enshittification” better be the word of the year.
Equally fitting if the word of the year is “Clauding™: to leverage Anthropic™ intelligence tooling to simplify your life and maximize you potential. Brought to you by Anthropic™! Get your free trial today!”
And now we have ten years of fucked up young adults who think this is how it’s always been.
Capitalism bitch! Where the ONLY metric for anything or anyone is how much money it can make.
I love when people act like the alternative to capitalism is zero private business and full communism. It’s like, no, the thing before the -ism is simply the thing it centers. Capitalism, as you say, centers capital but after that it can take several forms, all of which suck major ass as they reward nearly any behaviour which makes more money. Even objectively awful shit can just be paid off, it’s insane.
Rent seeking behavior, the thing capitalism is best at :’)
Sure wish Americans would do something about this so the rest of the world doesn’t have to suffer.
You’re allowed to do your own thing ya know.
Check out the UK.
It will get worse. And China will take advantage of it, they’re not stupid, it’s a no brainer when you have all of the manufacturing and industry and your competition has none.
We set a trap and fell in it
I’m hoping we get to see this taken to a peak of comic absurdity and historical irony. I’m hoping one day we see the Chinese Navy blockade and target London. Why? To force the UK to accept Chinese fentanyl imports.
Makes me glad I’m in Australia then!🤣😂
Seriously. Can we please get US articles and posts labeled as such? This constant assumption that the US is the world is tiring….
Eg: Everything In The US is a scam now
Thank you for your time.👍
Ah yes, Australia, famously immune from capitalism
Glad to see a well thought out response!👍
More well thought out than your original comment
You gotta out scam the scammers.
