“The internet was once a fun place for watching cat videos instead of monitoring the real-time collapse of late-stage capitalism”

“Fun Fact: The internet was once a fun place for watching cat videos instead of monitoring the real-time collapse of late-stage capitalism” is a saying that has been printed on many images. The term “late-stage capitalism” is sometimes replaced with “western civilization.”

i would like this Fun reality the online world ended up being when an enjoyable location for viewing pet movies in the place of keeping track of the collapse that is real-time of capitalism shirt. Monitoring has its charm too: it is kind of fun because it seems that things are finally going in the direction that is right the second episode/ crisis this is certainly). Don’t you imagine more and much more folks are following through the same as it had been at the start of the young kids movements? To me, it seems like the beginning of the Civil Rights Movement all over again! With Trump in office encouraging this hatred it is a fight that is long.
