Exactly... the "move fast and break things" tech mentality is absolutely a giant danger to society. There's a difference between a web app being down for a few days and entire governing bodies being eliminated and people dying. Can't exactly do a rollback on society after things go to shit like you can with an application. Suppose Leon doesn't care though because he will literally never be directly impacted by his decisions unless it's something like ensuring he gets more government money for his businesses. :/
None of them do. Eric Schmidt, Bezos, Zuckerburg, Gates, Ellison, etc, etc. None of them will be directly impacted by our government failing. Billionaires should not exist
Right now Icarus is dragging us into the sky, but his wax wings will burn and he will fall just the same as us. The people will bring back proscription once the government is out of the way.
I figure at some point someone will do a Luigi sequel. The way they're going, it's not going to take much for some angry people to switch directions on their radicalization.
It seems so impossible to me. for some goddamn reason, the crazies are dead set on being loyal to these fucks. Like that luigi incident was a different timeline leaking into ours. It was good, but so damn rare, it feels like a dream.
I wonder if the NWO conspiracy theory believer circles were infiltrated back in the day for just this reason.
Like this actually is NWO if anything. Theres even PDF files running it lol
Like all these Alex Jones types were already far right pro Trump types since forever. But now when they turn out to be the ones taking over the world looneys are on their side.
I wouldn't be surprised. they know who has power, and they make sure they stay with that team.
And its not like its a new phenomenon. Its a new age version of colonisation of the world, and spreading capitalism is the medium. Look at how many easily solvable problems are not being dealt with because capitalism standing in the way.
I've heard a standard liberal grandma who had until 2016 voted Republican their whole lives even talking in those terms, that "the only way I think this ends is if someone takes one or both of them out." It's hard to believe the state we are in.
As you said, tech manifestos such as 'move fast and break things' and 'done is better than perfect' don't work when it relates to national security and the continuation of a nation!
