No one being surprised at this statement is an indication of how much enshittification and betrayal we have agreed to accept.

I’d like to acknowledge the damage I carry as a human being as a result of the pressure to pretend that this is normal. Just because there doesn’t seem to be real alternatives in so many areas of this “free market” /s economy.

It has been a long decent. I blame advertising, because I doubt we would have put up with as much enshittification if the majority of our digital lives wasn't free, paid for by advertising, like it currently is.
We live in a world where the powerful deceive us. We know they lie. They know we know they lie. They don't care. We say we care but do nothing
