It's almost like raising prices without improving the service causes people to cancel 🤔
Well, good news I guess, with the way the climate is gonna go now you won't be living long at all.
Good god, imagine if that money was spent on something meaningful like climate adaptation or building housing. Hell, reinvest it in the your companies, at least it would create something. What a staggering waste...

So now you know they were never actually a "law and order" party, just as they've never actually been a "fiscal responsibility" or "liberties and freedoms" party. These are just words they say to their base when it is convenient.

Technological development can destroy our sense of ourselves as rational, coherent subjects, leading to widespread suffering and destruction. But tools can also provide us with a new sense of what it means to be human, leading to new modes of expression and cultural practices.
Technology, for better or worse, affects every aspect of our lives. Our very sense of who we are is shaped and reshaped by the tools we have at our disposal.
The problem, for Stiegler, is that when we pay too much attention to our tools, rather than how they are developed and deployed, we fail to understand our reality. We become trapped, merely describing the technological world on its own terms and making it even harder to untangle the effects of digital technologies and our everyday experiences.
By encouraging us to pay closer attention to this world-making capacity, with its potential to harm and heal, Stiegler is showing us what else is possible.

Remember how they couldn't get the cyber truck to not rust? Or the bullet proof windows to work? Or how the milage for most Tesla's was impossible, so people thought their cars were broken, and instead of either confessing or fixing the mileage they created an elaborate scheme to cancel appointment so people couldn't get their batteries looked at? These are the people you trusted to put a chip in your brain...
"...but I have never bothered to check because I hate sand."
For when your duce is so gnarly the lingering stench could soffcate a small child, and there is a lineup outside, and you realise your only option to avoid needing to look the next person in the eye and own your shame is suicide.

My comrad in class, unless you are a multi-millionare we are all peasants together. Many of us have excellent minds, as you likely do yourself. Do not tie our mental capability to our economic caste.
