That handful of people also know how to make an uprising difficult, they realised tiktok was dangerous because people could (and were) using it to inform people about stuff behind the veil they've constructed using their media monopolisation. People were showing war zones atrocities in real time, conflicting with the handfuls narrative, so they hostile takovered it, like the do everything else they want to use to serve their narrative and further their interests. There's power in boycotting, and block lists, but when they monopolise and cause manufactured high cost of living to force you to give them your money (serve them in slavery) it's pretty hard to boycott. I often switch between two daydreams, one where I Thanos them out of existence, and the other where us 8 billion people combine to form "people of the earth" Chuck in a dollar each and systematically buy up all our politicians so they serve us again. Then we all collectively buy everything and share it, so everyone has the basics to be able to live comfortably. Every billionaire is unethical. They're the ones causing destruction of our planet. We kinda need that! If it's not prolonging fossil fuel use and mining, it's creating "ai" that burns triple the power of the whole UK in one data centre. Like fuck!

Side note ai is tripping me out, a little. There doesn't seem to be the costs associated with the levels of usage costs it generates, it's also super not capable of what they're trying to use it for, are they all just super fucking stupid, or is there some nefarious under plot going on?
