  A good summary of the state of things. It's great to see the penny dropping for more people, and the different ways they each have of expressing that epiphany. A couple of thoughts/criticisms: "The Rot Economy" and "Enshitification" are different approaches to describing terminal (self-devouring) stages of Capitalism which are thoroughly examined in political sciences (eg. Marx, Sombart). We have definitely entered that stage and things are accelerating far beyond expectations. That road-map is valuable and I wish more people had it in their toolbox of ideas/vocabulary. > "it’s time to start holding those responsible accountable." I disagree with this scapegoating. We are responsible. We are all personally responsible. I am. You are. And never before in history have we had so much power to exercise that responsibility. I'm writing an extended series on this.

    Inteesting indeed, you're right that everyone is more culpable than they think (but it also means we have the power enact change). Do share more once the series is out.
