Surveillience Capitialism

Substance is buried beneath the libbery. The relevant bit: capitalist conditions have changed. Surveillance capitalism brings new rules distinct from those of industrial or finance capital. I mean we did have massive towers of data driven wealth arise and multiply in very short order. This also means new repression will operate differently from the fascism of the past

As a LIB Zuboff has fluffy, vibes based ideas on what to do about it, and a very cute belief that the West has meaningful democracy, eg the concept that top level decision making behind closed doors is new

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
