@dangillmor@mastodon.social This was a fantastic read.
I think it worth acknowledging that just 18 months ago, this pullquote would've been deemed radical and alarmist by liberals. And that the "Epstein Class" does not go into remission when Democrats take office.
It's also worth acknowledging that change can lead to an absence of power, which causes a vacuum. And we are ill equipped to capture that power for the people.
Right now, as it stands, we're looking neoliberalism dying, and technocracy rising.

@dangillmor@mastodon.social If we do not come to terms with the fact that Democrats, as an entity are not on our side, that they exist to maintain the power structures that benefit the Fortune 500 and the rising Cloud Empire, we have zero chance of capturing the changing winds. Only then can we focus our attention on shifting our attention *away* from the trillions of ad impressions that current pay for our oppression.
