Minimalist is not how I'd describe the endless amount of spectacle and triggering but useless "features" on everything
heyyy no need to drag the Grinch like that...
Yeah, that is exactly what I've thought of Yanis V's "critique" as well. Well said
It's a kind of rebrand of Marxism that is missing out on some important points, even the defining elements of capitalism which are still in place. Like, he is saying capitalism is not capitalism anymore? His idea is that capitalism has been "killed" which is disingenuous at best (if he's just using it as hyperbole) and completely wrong at worst, since we are indeed still broadly in the thick of it. It does seem sorta like he just wanted to sell a book or hear himself talk etc.
I'll chip in as long as I can fly it -- I have 1000+ hours in flight simulator
