"Enshittification" is a sort of "safe horny" term for what is really just outright impoverishment and declining living standards due to economic insolvency from deindustrialization, demographic decline, hyperinflation, etc.
You are just de-developing and becoming poor.
Every time I hear people criticize art/ creative related fields I think about how art is usually what we use to remember past civilizations. Literature, paintings, architecture and pottery come to mind. A government against art is a government against humanity.

AP is so on point with this. Reject the language the cult uses and you rob it of its power. Thats why they are going bonkers over this. Humans have agency. Computer programs are run by humans who are accountable for everything the programs do.
Nothing more emblematic of Israel's total impunity on the world stage than its PM casually threatening the United Nations with a repeat of a previous terrorist attack while people demanding his arrest are dragged into police vans as if *they* were the ones with ICC warrants
Generational differences are fake. Everyone is rude. Everyone stares at you like a slack jawed moron. Everyone is more conservative and prudish. Everyone listens to short form content out loud on their phones in public places
I don't understand how we are meant to respect or take seriously ANYTHING our political/media class says about ANYTHING after this. Self-interested ghouls without an ounce of humanity left.
