Flock Camera Politics, AoT#503
The private platforms that have monopolized the whole of internet have us trapped in their system. There are no options to resist, and there is no regulation in sight. All the while, we are being watched by the all-encompassing surveillance grid, owned and operated by the same technocratic elite. That's right, we just used the term "elite." It's one of the buzzwords that they have worked hard to define for themselves, obviously directing all attention away from themselves in doing so. Go to hell, you elite scum bags.

Soft(ware) Power, AoT#500
Soft power becoming software power, and the hope is to embed it as the OS for every government in the world. Behind the veneer of the ever-present online propaganda, lies this simple motive. When we talk about new cold wars, national security, or even a world war, this is the prize that all of the power brokers, decision makers, and stakeholders have as their motivation.
