They don't respect us. Yet we still fund their ability to own us. We don't need everything this lifestyle offers us. We should be practicing living without so we don't need to depend on them for anything more than the basics. Learn to prioritize finding enjoyment in whats natural and free, not what's marketed.
The rise of data centers probably isn't solely for consumer grade ai like chatgpt. FEDs already have deals and use current datacenters. Look at the timing of ICE and immigration drama. Look at the bill that is looking to allow ICE to police shoplifting. Notice the insane funding boost ICE got. I don't this is coincidence. Life and authentic humanity is on the line. And don't get it twisted left right or center dependency will lead to the same outcomes.
They are keenly aware of our needs and do everything they can to control means of production of those things to use as leverage over us. Its an endless war between us, who want freedom to live, and them, who use our fundamental desire to exist as means of making our lives serve their ambitions. We're always being enslaved. You can debate the niceness of the cage across time and place, but none of us are free of the relentless attempts to *re-*enslave us.
Oh they definitely want to lock up people and put them to work, enslave us... Debtor prisons will be back soon and they'll charge the cost of imprisonment to the debtor.
And for those that somehow avoid getting directly imprisoned for "crimes" there'll be company towns waiting for you!
It's kinda fucking terrifying when you think about how much thought and effort has been put into undermining the 14th amendment...I guess the ends justify the means if you're dumb enough to think you're going to be a slave owner in the future.
Instead you're going to be a slave of geocorp (I think...but private prison) with a government contract to keep the indebted in debt to the prison and their debt.
