The fact that you can, for all intents and purposes, die a miserable death where the cause is TOPOLOGY is absolute nightmare fuel. Pure Lovecraftian horror: the shape from space that eats your brain.

Okay apparently some of you got lost in the Tom Nichols of it all to miss the import of the thread. He's trying to point out how there is a kind of bad state of affairs that we are not in. Why does that matter if the admin want's us there? It's as above: we still have tools of democracy to use now!

I mean I think the thing we learned 100 years ago that we are relearning now is that a lot of ownership interests under capitalism are not about the functioning of markets! On all levels of ownership!

I like Marcus Aurelius because his meditations are mostly “I just wanna read a fkn book but I’m the stupid emperor of the stupid empire and if I don’t do my IX to V everyone and everything in the world will know I neglected my responsibilities 😤
