I am not a "tech critic". I am an antifascist, a feminist, an anticapitalist, an engineer. My criticism of tech flows from my politics and values. Not from a desire to save or destroy tech. Tech is an expression of power and that's what the whole conversation is about.

Maybe if career politicians wouldn't sell out the 99% of us to line their own pockets, we'd have a better distribution.
Some of us were there 84 years ago when we caught the financial world with their collective pants down.

Was waiting to see how Olivia Reingold (who Oliver's piece destroyed almost as much as Bari Weiss) would respond, and you can see the tweet below which also shows she either did not watch his piece, or just didn't understand it, since he actually addresses this point directly.

I'm sooooo gd tired of this fucking kakistocracy.
UPDATE: President Trump and his deputies tied autism to acetaminophen use during pregnancy, presented a cancer drug as a possible treatment, and said the FDA would change labeling to reflect both claims. There is little strong scientific evidence for either.
Trump blames Tylenol for autism. Science doesn't back him up

Censorship never stops with just one book, one newspaper, one person. The end goal of censorship is always complete control.
For Christ's sake, Kimmel just showed a video of the President's own words.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

How is it political violence if he was not an elected official/politician. He was a hate monger and promoted fascist views. Oh by the way there was another school shooting today, in Colorado, but nobody is talking about that. So we’re still okay with kids getting murdered all the time I guess.
