I remember reading 'The Marching Morons' by CM Kornbluth, back in the 1970s. Great short story that really grabbed the imagination. So did the movie 'Idiocracy'.
Did you notice Trump's announcement of David Sacks as the 'Crypto Czar' also said he would protect free speech online and prevent Big Tech from imposing it's power over us?
I feel as safe as a little bird snuggled in the coils of a serpent.
Thanks!
The movie was funny. In more ways than one. About Trump announcement and Sacks being the protector of free speech - your commend about the coils of a serpent are a perfect description.
