Bad news is the same framework that fucked us is almost guaranteed to be actively working to do the same in whatever country you live in. So use us as an example and prevent this shit from happening to you early before it’s too fucking late
The people that fucked us have already fucked a bunch of other nations. The rise of right wing authoritarianism in Europe over the last few decades was aided by political operatives like Paul Manafort, who then directed that experience towards domestic politics.
And then there are the missionaries and evangelicals whose indoctrination programs pushed bigotry and intolerance in various African nations, leading to some of the harshest laws criminalizing LGTBQ in the world.
For a culture that’s constantly complaining about “globalism”, they sure spend a lot of time and money spreading their influence overseas.

That was my point, we were the test run for the tech-bro oligarchy
I wasn’t disagreeing, just expanding on your point. :)
