Thoughts?
A good summary of the state of things. It's great to see the penny
dropping for more people, and the different ways they each have of
expressing that epiphany.
A couple of thoughts/criticisms:
"The Rot Economy" and "Enshitification" are different approaches to describing terminal (self-devouring) stages of Capitalism which are thoroughly examined in political sciences (eg. Marx, Sombart). We have definitely entered that stage and things are accelerating far beyond expectations. That road-map is valuable and I wish more people had it in their toolbox of ideas/vocabulary.
> "it’s time to start holding those responsible accountable."
I disagree with this scapegoating. We are responsible. We are all personally responsible. I am. You are. And never before in history have we had so much power to exercise that responsibility.
I'm writing an extended series on this. If you're interested it starts here:

Inteesting indeed, you're right that everyone is more culpable than they think (but it also means we have the power enact change). Do share more once the series is out.
