But those effects are not universal.

Not everyone is locked into iMessage.

Of course you’ve hardly been forced into hard labor in the gulag.

Can we use government for something more universal than saving you from your social groups choices?

Stuff like this feels petty by all parties.

Use an app that’s already universal if users are so desperate.

Playing whack a mole back and forth over a chat app as if it’s some high minded fight for speech when countless options exist is melodrama for the sake of melodrama and engagement farming

Beeper real goal is like everyone else in tech; get rich. It found the perfect marketing meme, the old David and Goliath story, to piggyback its business goals on.

Oh you’ve polled all the people and learned they really believe? Most just “follow orders” and I’m guessing if pressed would see no value to the hallucination. Anti-corporatism is everywhere; how many actually believe as you say? I doubt that many believe and it really just seems beneficial for you to patronize and “correct” others.

Accuracy relative to the dying and long dead’s ignorant political babble is a ridiculous stat to min/max to dial in correctness. Stay in the centrist lane!

Rather than have a forward facing conversation, you reach for history. There’s little point in continuing this conversation

Thanks for reinforcing my point about over reliance on euphemisms.

“Rich people” in a fiat economy is due to the valuation of their assets, often but always, large stakes in corporations.

All of which is politically correct hallucination. None of it exists as immutable physics.

The mistake is yours for memorizing vacuous political statements.

Stop hiding reality behind euphemism.

The rich are just people.

The sooner we accept that and dispose of the bizarre “deification” of the rich the sooner we can discuss deprecation of their influence and reach.

The apathetic kowtow to a handful of aging out government brown nosers who lobby to insulate themselves is sad.

1980s Reagan economy is not immutable physics and we have no obligation to believe the stories of the rich about their success. There’s a whole lot of behavioral science being leveraged, and intentional PR propaganda tossed around to obfuscate the rich are “just people”

Cult of personality and connection to the 1% of 1% given our tech fueled economy skews worker motives.

If you had such a chance to sit around while everyone else grew your potatoes, you would.
