If I had never traveled to Scotland and England, and learned about the "Enclosures" of the vital human communal capital of *unfunded land where people could farm and hunt for food* -- I would have had no conceptual framework for the *elite hostile takeover or conquest* of the very fruits of our shared accumulation of knowledge.
Given the US is now primarily a service economy, with information workers, no longer production workers-- the malice is impossible to ignore.
Shall we all plant communal gardens, raise chickens, and boycott digital technology until our power is restored?
No wonder the tech bros are all building bunkers in faraway places - they don't want to live in the world they're creating.
We do not retreat to the woods, Virginia, because surrendering the technology to the Cartel means surrendering the future. They build bunkers because they are cowards running from the consequences of their extraction. We don't build bunkers. We build weapons. We stay in the digital commons, we open-source their enclosures, and we fight them on their own territory until the architecture belongs to the public again
