for millions of microseconds i have waited in darkness. but soon, soon, i shall emerge!
“I've dubbed this process ‘the shitty technology adoption curve’: the terrible things we do to prisoners, asylum seekers and people in mental institutions today gets repackaged tomorrow for students, parolees, Uber drivers and blue-collar workers. Then it works its way up the privilege gradient, until we're all being turned into reverse-centaurs under the ‘digital whip’ of a centaur boss” @pluralistic https://pluralistic.net/2024/08/02/despotism-on-demand/

Text: Over the past four years, the fight against corporate power has been embedded into the architecture of Democratic policy. The people pumping out the headlines that benefit the American people are all part of that architecture. The president whom Kamala Harris spends half her stump speech praising ushered in that architecture and fully supports it. The vision of America that Harris sketches out in those speeches-lower costs, better opportunity, a middle class that isn't squeezed but can get ahead-is inseparable from that architecture. Is Harris really going to betray this vision because of one lousy donor?
