Damn this is interesting

I disagree. My opinion is that the technology did change. It just became more efficient at doing its job (killing people, surveillance, and mass propaganda).

The internet was supposed to be a gateway of information, but now it’s the largest propaganda network. Free speech is censored by closed source algorithms and the entire internet infrastructure is controlled and owned by the 1%.

We are more isolated compared to before, class solidarity is almost nonexistent, and its easier to identify people now vs before due to being interconnected real time.

I can go more on and on but the tldr is that technology has made it easier and faster to crush dissent

It’s an uphill battle, but it’s better to start early than late.

Unlike before, the rich now have private armies, lobbying groups, and mass surveillance networks while we peasants own nothing. Plus, the pot is slowly boiled.

The alternative was just another corporate democrat who couldn’t keep his marbles straight and was switched out at the very last minute to an unpopular corporate democrat. The DNC fucked themselves over on purpose.

But yea, it still boggles me how Trump won (twice)

Two faced traditional AIPAC funded corporate politician. All bark no bite. Sad that he’s being upselled as THE democratic nominee
