You get a couple of lines in, and it’s painfully familiar, since it’s sadly so incredibly similar to my waning love of programming...
It’s wildly destructive for society to have these completely devoid of ethics, fascist-style assholes with capital/power, that can dictate what what more useful people than can spend their time thinking about, yet no-one even thinks it’s a problem.
Although to be fair it’s just a sub-problem of how humanity has forced itself into self-destructive patterns, by ignoring reality and following fanatical ideologies about “unrestricted capitalism” and “the free market” as if that is some sort of divine power...
Imagine spending your short life developing ads for Google or Facebook. It would have been objective better for all of humanity if all these naive assholes people had become alcoholic bums living on the street... that would at least have curbed their ability to fuck with the rest of humanity.

The bigger problem is of course how we as a society legitimizes destroying young people’s future, just to fund exorbitant pensions for clueless old people who still think 1968 was a “leftist” moment, instead of actually being the starting point of the fanatically far-right fantasy world we live in today. (The next step is of course to dismantle this fantasy world) (Edit: tldr: let’s stop letting pension funds kill children, okay..?)
