Social media is on the decline. Instagram is all ads. No one’s posting on BeReal. TikTok is for influencers. The new place for sharing: group chats.

    There used to be a time when corporations were taxed so hard they did everything they could to reinvest their money into the company/employees/communities just to avoid it going to taxes. Unfettered capitalism destroys the humanity in everything it touches.

        Yes, the name itself gives it away that the only thing to be considered, real or not, is to be the capital and the extraction of value over everything under the sun…

            Seriously, how old are you? I am from country which was under comunist regime for long time, until whole sssr collapsed because it did not work.

            I would recommend you to study history little bit more. It destroyed humanity basically same. So in my opinion answer (or way forward) is not other extreme but sort of mix of these.
