Yes! It’s absolutely a new world order they are building. I wish those of us that see it were better grouped up at this point to share information and get a clearer understanding.

Those of you of a certain age like myself have to feel like you are eating crazy pills at the current state of things, it's almost like they are building some kind of... new.. world.. order. Something they fucking were talking about being some evil government/Democrat plot for decades now. What a ride. Did not see Trump at the head of it though.

He isn’t at the head of it. He’s the figurehead, at best. But dark fucking times are upon us.

Of course there's always lots of cool stuff going on in the fringes but as far as mainstream society goes with this consolidation of power and wealth and so many mergers eating up any decent competition it does seem pretty bleak. I've pretty much eschewed any new stuff from big tech for a while now, it's was very sad to watch the web turn into a place of such open and creative expression into what it is today full of rigid standards, bloated frameworks, bots, AI, endless advertising, bland design, spam, spam, spam, bacon, eggs and spam.
