Finance withered, control faltered, and the Woke Scolds corroded from within. Yet history turns: spring stirs, production beckons—as the Tech Bros ascend their machinic throne.
a bunch of breathless nonsense, cleverly dressed in easy-to-identify cutesy pop culture references, the WORST crime in my book. Pop culture is pure BS, at once both appalling and appealing; it doesnt really teach you any useful information except for what are the current fantasies presented to the masses for easy consumption. (see, I can write cutesy sentences too). Pop culture is best viewed 20-30-40 years after it happened; then and only then you can view and examine the time frame it came from and come to some useful data.
The author is blinded by the "tech bros", a bunch of autistic nerds with chips on their shoulders cua no girls gave them the time of day in high school/college. That's why they are dismantling the current order; they have held a deep hatred for it sicne they were first called nerds. Nothing to celebrate there; they will bring so much chaos to the system, it might collapse and they (hope) they will be able to rebuild to their one liking. Billions migh suffer and perish in the process. Again, NOTHIGN to celebrate. "JObs" arent coming back to USA; that horse has left the building. whats left? Theit distraction in form of fantasies of emigrating to Mars? Let's first fix the problem here, than leaving Earth.
I dont even want to discuss AI, and how it is already destroying millions of jobs. What will the laid off do? Beg on the street? Or arm themselevs and say fuck it, I got nothing left to lose.
It seems you either didn’t read the piece carefully or misunderstood it if you think I’m celebrating the Tech Bros. On the other hand, I would never defend the financialized regime—a stance you, curiously, seem all too ready to take. It appears you’ve fallen into the nihilism of There Is No Alternative, resigning yourself to the ruins rather than daring to build anew. After all, demolition is only the prelude to construction.
It’s all in the movies🤗

As for the wisdom of critiquing pop culture, have you ever heard of the recently departed Fredric Jameson?
