    I’d like that to happen, but that’s sadly unlikely. Companies like Google and Microsoft should be global infrastructure under state control - even better would be UN control.

      It’ll never happen for as long as you and people like you believe it’s impossible.

      Once you all believe it is possible, it will become inevitable.

        I said it’s unlikely, not impossible. I like to dream of a better future more in line with what we thought would be happening at the time when the internet was still young too.

        It is ABSOLUTELY possible.

        At this point, we need to stop listening to ANYONE who says it’s impossible.

        What is NOT possible is sustaining the current system as it currently functioning.

        Literally anyone can look at the current system and identify that it can’t continue to function in this way. And I’m not arguing that people will say that it’s too cruel to continue. I’m saying that regardless of whether anyone is working to try to change the system, it’s just not logistically possible for things to continue functioning the way they’ve been functioning. The population doesn’t have any more to give, but the wealthy demand more profits and profits at an increasing break.

        We are at a breaking point with or without people trying to break anything.
