Irony is, those in need of deprogramming the most are the ones into programming. How is it even possible that people that are supposed to be so intelligent/logical/rational are actually this gullible to state’s propaganda that they believe it without a shred of doubt.

    We are overpaid to produce useless shit that is overvalued under monopoly capitalism because software as a service is hyper efficient rent seeking. Because we make rich people so much money there is industrial level propaganda to make our work out to be some revolutionary science that will solve all of humanities problems.

      Can’t agree enough.

      industrial level propaganda to make our work out to be some revolutionary science that will solve all of humanities problems.

      It’s such garbage. Not to mention just the corporate propaganda for other corporations. Not even ‘solving humanities problems’ but simply just ‘how can we revolutionize some fucking bank so that they can fire more people and extract more wealth from the ones left?’. That’s what passes for revolutionary in my works garbage view.
