    Aahh, see? Now that is more problematic than the article about a folkloric world theme park I read.

    But it’s also not exactly new, company towns were already a sad part of our reality. Luckily we got over it, but rich people of course always want to get back to it.

      We never got over it, they just use 401ks to control our futures now, and corporate owned housing is why rents are too high for us to do anything but work, eat, scroll, and sleep. If we stop to protest we’re in danger of homelessness.

        At this point there are only two rational viewpoints on the world situation.

        1. The system is broken and needs to be fixed
        2. The system is working as intended and must be destroyed
