A #KISS explanation of our current mess:
The world is broken. Liberal Capitalism is trying to push back into mainstream mindspace and failing. The rightwing nutters with zero mortality are swamping them. The left is still a fraction.
The core issue is private ownership of data.
* The liberal capitalists apply "legal" DRM which is a digital fiction and dead end.
* The nutter right are corporatist walking directly to digital apartheid/political fascism.
* The left are irrelevant.
