Never downplay a politician's lust for control. I beg. A proposed, seemingly insignificant bill starts one place with the goal of leading to another, then another… [...]
Don't Let Me FallI fear that, out of convenience and privilege, people are more likely to continue to adopt and employ the evil or unethical actions and practices of billionaires than to persecute them or get rid of their class entirely.

“Democracy shouldn’t end at the login screen.”

Literally everyone who uses Windows on their personal devices are (un)intentionally voting for authoritarianism.
Leave Big Tech at work.
Make open source tech household names.
Democracy is not convenient. Authoritarianism is.

Modern day convenience is not an example of how much freedom the vast majority of the world has.
It is a tool used for mental slavery.
It causes laziness and apathy towards and detachment from things that are important for a democratic society.
A privacy nightmare is a democratic nightmare.
There is no separation of the two.
Without privacy, there is no democracy.
Democracy is not failing only because of corruption.
Democracy is also failing because people are too comfortable giving up their privacy (among other rights) in exchange for convenience.
Democracy is not convenient.
Authoritarianism is convenient.
It's not just about you.

Enslaving people is easier than freeing them.
Why?
Because freeing people requires them to do some of the work. Enslaving them requires them to do nothing.
People love doing nothing.

There is a thin line between apathy and evil when one's apathy encourages or perpetuates the continued suffering or oppression of others.

Voting every day is significantly more effective than voting at an election.
The reason for this is that the candidates who would dare to run for office would understand how dangerous the citizens of their country can be, and as such wouldn't dream of underperforming or acting corruptly.
Capitalism cannot be changed, but those who truly control it, the 99%, need to understand that their power is not limited to every 4 years.
