I’m listening to the book now, about halfway through. If you’ve been on places like Lemmy or Reddit the past several years you’ve likely heard most of the anecdotes he presents to support his claims, but there’s some new ones I hadn’t heard that are interesting.
I really enjoyed Chokepoint Capitalism (2022), the book he co-authored (read: had someone else back up his frequently repeated anecdotes with reputable citations in a proper Bibliography) with Rebecca Giblin. 90% of the interview can be found in that book already with 10% being new slogans and anecdotes that can’t be found in that book.
“Bleepification” because the FCC. We live in Afghanistan apparently.
You always did. People walking around with guns, religious fanatics, places where you can get killed for no reason. People abducted and tortured -> Guantanamo bay. Your economy is just running better and your military is way more offensive.
Didn’t know about the Google McKinsey guy, wow. How long do we have to suffer until things change…?
