    I look it like a race between propaganda and people thinking about what’s in front of them. And the propaganda has one hell of a head start and is borderline unshakable

      I had the biggest positive indicator I’ve seen yet just yesterday at work. A guy I work with who is in his mid 50s loudly stated that he believes anyone who is a corporate landlord should be slapped with fines so stiff that it becomes impossible to be one until there are no more houseless people in the area in which they are a landlord.

      I could have died right there in my seat. It’s the FIRST time I’ve ever heard anyone in silicon valley say anything even remotely positive about something that isn’t “hurdur capitalism #1 best in da werl”
