…eventually we will reach a point where companies like Tesla and Amazon become more powerful than governments (if we haven’t already reached this point.)
Just look at how stories like 1984 are predicated on governmental spying on citizens. While many elements of the Patriot Act have given way to this, one can also see the mass surveillance and disregard for privacy from tech companies such as Apple, Linked In, Google, Amazon, etc…
Another element of this is that it now appears that both the US and Soviet Union’s space programs are effectively neutered and it is private companies that will be sending people into space…
I could drop dozens of links showing evidence but I really don’t have the motivation to write more than a few words on this. As a low status male with relatively little to lose, it gets harder and harder to care each day when an “honest conversation” gets me labelled as some “mouth breathing, anti-vax Alex Jones fanboy.” Better to (mostly) stay under the radar and care not for people who never cared for me.
