RE: Panarchist Experiments: Can Propertarians & Non-Propertarians Co-Exist?
we predict that this potentially violent period will be short as people realize that peace and cohabitation is in their own self-interest.
This is where I always have to write off anarchists, that belief is a central premise of their philosophy, despite the fact that in all of human history the opposite has occurred.
Throughout history we have had sociopathic leaders that use violence as a means of control.
Same script, different day.
In the past it was more obvious, now almost everyone is kept distracted with endless 24/7 entertainment.
they did it in the past as well, that's why they built the coliseum and other stadiums. Bread and circus, that's what the people want. It will be the same in the future, rewards for those who follow the laws and punishments for those who do not.
Technology, specifically mass adoption, combined with the use of internet surveillance, enables real-time analysis of what makes people tick.
Always remember that human behavior is the most studied subject, ever.
The current entertainment industrial complex is a weapon of mass distraction, and possibly the best weapon system ever devised.
yeah it's terrible, they target you with ads for things you actually want. unless you decide to turn the ads off.
Irrelevant for me, especially since I don't own a television or use any commercial websites.
Then they can't figure out how you tick, they only have the information that people willingly give them. This is a commercial website.
I haven't purchased anything here, and there are no ads here.
I'm a poor consumer, not much to gain off my presence as I don't have many followers.
Everything that is posted online is scraped and analyzed, there is no such thing as full anonymity.
So yes, many sites could be considered commercial, if the users are considered a product.
you can tell it's commercial because of the .com. That and all the people making money. Of course you are generating lots of valuable data about yourself here that governments and corporations can and probably do use to build your profile.
They already had us all pretty well pegged though, before all the internet shit they had very detailed profiles of all consumers. My wife and I used to get what were the same credit card offers but presented in totally different ways. They know what sort of stamp and font and paper and what color envelope you prefer, things I don't even really know about myself, and that was before social media.
