From my observations it appears to be incredibly corrosive socially.

The scale of the damage it is doing in western society at the moment will need books, not chapters, dedicated to it in the future.

>Millions is a low value in terms of wealth and makes only really sense to mention it if your previous wealth was significant different.

Only really true in America and well see how that holds up as we progress with America's collapse.

I'm going to guess by not declaring a change of residency and keeping everything flowing through their American / Canadian SSN + bank etc.

>That's the biggest problem on being Canadian, it's hard to find something to bitch about. When you live in a nice country all your dramas become pathetic.

Utterly clueless.

Google, by virtue of its sheer influence in the industry, is primarily responsible for the activist-driven grief that has shat itself all over the tech industry in recent years.

So fuck them. Watching the toxic crops they've planted and tended to go for their own creator's throats is nothing short of delightful.

>I don't agree that this is the fault of tech at all.

>The real culprit I believe, has been the incredible hysteria of the legacy media as it joined the social media spaces, and started their race to the bottom for clickbait and outrage porn. Covering inane tweets, and blowing them up to pretend that crackpot points-of-view have more weight and are more common than they truly are. Gotcha gonzo-journalism, that prides "getting them" (whichever group that may be) over informing, and in the process dehumanising large swathes of people for clicks.

Everything you've outlined above is entirely the result of technology and the incentive structures that have been pursued in its "advancement".
