Well, This makes total sense. Part of late stage capitalism is having so many markets consolidated that there are only a handful of competitors in that market. The market isn't very competitive and so there's really nothing driving innovation.

A company like meta or alphabet just buys a company with a cool tech idea, and then never iterates on it. They don't have to. TikTok for example is doing so amazing that for the first time ever YouTube, and even Meta are having to compete with a company they can't just buy. So, they've been working to make their products better, and lobbying to get TikTok banned at the same time.

If successful, they'll go back to business as usual.

Break up these big fucking monopolies and make markets competitive again.

"make a useless meme"

Ok, but who thought that was a good idea?

It's going to be an interesting decade without the new England Patriots being in almost every super bowl.

And a militarized police, and innocent deaths are the subscription we all pay so some people can indulge in this fetish.
