I'm probably too weak to get what I want and likely the entire human species is to weak to maintain or create more liberty.

From where I'm sitting everyone will eventually cave in and the Chinese version of authoritarianism will win. Except for a select class of rulers.

The Expanse pictured the global hegemony perfectly. Everyone lives in slums and is gated and fenced into their specific privileged zones except for a very select few who are either criminals, corrupt, militant, or in control and selecting who gets the opportunities themselves.

What is so interesting is how well China has commoditized snitching, spying, and turning eachother in for small rewards, like a state monitored cellphone.

The US is almost already there, it's still very factional tho. If we ever lose our division, either way, we'll just be a China clone dutifully reporting to the global elite.

It's serving in the military. Old age and experience. Exposure to a lot of information and many cultures. And first hand contact with those privileged who are in control.

Ya'll are kinda idiots lol.

I honestly don't think any of you have the faintest clue what it would be like to have a budget of even 100 million dollars, let alone the 400 million it costs to produce a triple A game with first line Steam advertising advantages.

Just go... do something productive.

Make yourself useful. And submit yourself to Amazon Online Entertainment or whatever.

True, and I recommend no one do the things I did or follow in my footsteps.
