eventually we're going to lose even the little scraps we cling to now.
monsanto seeds that you have to buy again every year because the company has a genomic patent on it.
the rich will engineer themselves - their genome, their environment, their bodies. they'll upgrade their failing organs etc.
i mean, they already are better than us due to their wealth and environment. they can out compete us, or are rich enough not to have to bother to compete in the exhausting destructive way we do.
we're literally obsolete humans wandering around, dying, losing. the only way out of this will be the moment where we don't even need to be produced.
remember that bush staffer that said "we create reality by acting, your job is to document it but by then we'll already have created another one".
proles like us inhabit realities, but those above us in this system are already at the point where they produce them. our realities are becoming obsolete, unprofitable, unnecessary.
we're being replaced by machines. what we are today is kind of like a corpse for the potential commodification of our lives.
the system has my image, my data - soon it will be able to scan my brain.
the data we have today is enough for some potential company to totally plot out my life. what i will do, when i will die, where i will go. this is not sci fi. your neuro data tells more about you than your self.
lets try and hash this out.
you've got google maps of my entire country. you've got every business, every shop, every potential job, every car, environmental data, weather data, everything ive ever said and done online, my position from my phone. you can use this to target advertise. you can totally control me, or rather, access the data that shows how i am nothing but a noise emitting from a totally integral reality system.
you can plot out everything im going to be capable of doing from this already. sure there are contingencies that wont be foreseen, but thats only an absence of data.
you could literally decide it was inefficient to have me in this system at all and remove me.
