Just a cat in a human suit. The death of print magazines put me on retirement. Sometimes I still get to write words.

My smartphone is one of those models that got blocked by the Sinophobic Google Play Store, so I don't play games on my phone unless I sideload them and even then some games still demand a Google Play login

Maybe. I don't want to project too far a guess, but I was responding directly to your mention of "sincere vision," and I imagine a sincere vision is harder to pull off with a bureacratic army that numbers in the thousands than it is in a small monument built by a team in the low hundreds.

I'm sure a lot of factors are involved but there has to be a difference when it's a vision of 80-200 people and not a vision of 500-5,000. The swelling of team sizes were concerning back then but who knew It Could Get Worse.

Some I've spoken to take a strange sort of pride in this. Being asked to be the driver -- no pun intended -- of a company's product, while being entrusted with keeping this a secret is taken as an honor by minds too captured by corporatism or desperate to avoid poverty to question it.

I think it's perfectly understandable that many people feel a deep sense of resentment and disenfranchisement for the time capitalism has stolen from them, but the answer is not to embrace capital's machine that pretends to show you an inner life you aren't having.
