Doesn’t matter. They know everyone is hooked on that shit and will accept whatever it is they chose to do. Come on!

People will never get their shit together enough to do anything about this, and this is because people by-and-large, won’t boycott things they’re not willing to let go of.

Valve, YouTube, Meta, Microsoft, Rockstar…

… all of these things will be around forever, because they know how to tap into human endorphins. And humans will not protest against the thing that provides them. Not in numbers that would make any fucking difference.

So let’s all just keep consuming our doom-flavored outrage while we casually cruise the slow, spiraling decline into the AI-induced enshittification we all were warned about, but did nothing to stop. Oh, and be sure to complain about it to everyone that will listen before you settle down to sign in and see what shit they’re shoveling you this evening.
