And I don't really see your let's all hold hands and sing kumbayah until everything is fixed schtick as all that lovely either. The idea that we're just going to have the entire working class united against capitalists is an ahistorical fantasy. There will be brownshirts, and whites, and counter revolutionaries.

Everyone isolated behind their screens with every interaction mediated by tech corpos is the worst case scenario. A fully captive population with no chance to relate to one another directly at all. Ingroups and enemies dictated entirely by what is useful to that power structure. Steps toward unity are worth taking. The paranoia that's been inflicted on you is worth rejecting. A better world is possible, and if you believe that you should try working towards it. At the very least you could stop (consciously or not) reinforcing the us vs us paradigm of your oppressors.

Or keep mocking the concepts of unity, cooperation, and shared purpose themselves. I'm not your real mom. Just don't think it'll get you anywhere worth being.
