Dear World,
Long term, what are you going to do to stop the richest man in the world from buying up all your governments one by one? Seems like kind of a big problem?
Maxilo OveritDear 8 billion humans, most of whom have access to hoodies, backpacks and masks, not to mention weapons...
Álvaro Herrera@aka_quant_noir @godpod "most" of those 8 billion do not have access to weapons, actually ... and most of the ~ 350 million that do are unlikely to wish themselves to be on trial on terrorism charges
ottominati@alvherre @aka_quant_noir @godpod sort of interestingly explored by @pluralistic at https://prospect.org/culture/books/2024-12-09-radicalized-cory-doctorow-story-health-care/

Just finished. My only critique: based on the stories coming out in the last few weeks, the health insurance fails in the story don't sound nearly gratuitous enough. The denied treatments in the story were experimental, at least? But I suppose that's a consequence of it having been published before the true industrialization of healthcare denial, before stanard, absolutely non-controversial, bog-standard care is denied, just because.
