Yeah i couldn’t even read the original “manifesto” without gagging. It reminds me of the South Park when everyone starts loving the smell of their own farts. The author here is correct. Techno-capitalism creates more and worse problems than it solves. It’s pretty shocking how someone as intelligent as Marc can pan something so deeply naive. But as they say, “it is difficult for a man to understand something when his salary depends on him not understanding it”
