And they get to surveil the surveillance. That way it will be fair.

How is this different from communism again they said?

I'm sorta jiving with this tax the rich pieces of shit sorta thing

Yes but proportionally, if you let it just run, it will generate less surveillance total than what we were already doing and going to do worse.

Imagine being so scared of regular society that you gotta leave the planet. True snowflakes

Extreme haircuts?

Yo I have some very solid ideas for a business plan, like, if we can get a few woodworkers and metal smithing guys and some steel sharpening guys we could automate the FUCK out of this

I prefer that billionaires and the Epstein class get the death penalty

I want to be very clear that I am NOT endorsing violence toward billionaires.

I am merely pointing out that I fully believe that it will happen, and that I have read a history book, and I know about 1789 France.

That site is just Flock.

The level of personal tracking is absurd.

There's a reason the supermarket wants you to use their app for "digital coupons". There's a reason they want you to scan inside the store.

As an added bonus, big-box retail has a natural immunity to external RF, which forces you to use their wifi, which can track you down to your position in a specific aisle, how much time you spend there, your path around the store, etc.

And then when you're done, they know exactly what you bought because it's linked to your store card (which is naturally linked to the app, which is tracking you around the store).

They know what cuts of meat you like just as much as they know what kind of fungal infection you have.

They know (roughly) what you decided not to get just as well as they know what you did get

They know how much time you spent calculating the best deal on paper towels (the planograms have been updated to reflect this...items that people spend a lot of time contemplating are no longer facing each other in the aisle...they are always on the same side of the aisle...you won't find PT opposite TP, you won't find dog food opposite cat food, etc...they can track your position in the aisle but not which way you face).

And that data is more valuable than the profits on the goods in your cart.

Just as one example.

Paul Krugman insists that we'll need to separate these people from their unimaginable riches if we want society to survive.

Of course they don't want to give up their colossal capital, and would rather spend the rest of their lives going mad in their apocalypse shelters. An apocalypse they could have prevented if they could help but act like a cancer.

The wealth tax doesn't need to be so high that there's no wealth left.

Just about neck level or so.
