a blog post by my friend eevee which is, y’know, preaching to the choir about exactly what you think, but. yeah. https://eev.ee/blog/2025/07/03/the-rise-of-whatever/
@0xabad1dea Somehow this made me think of that 1995 movie The American President?

The People are lonely and looking for a genuine connection and will accept any simulacra: porn, soap opera, view counts, retweet counts, follower counts, LLM "AI" girlfriends…
They have been fleeced and deceived like sheep without a shepherd, and they don't know the difference anymore
All these middlemen and meddlemen keep pushing the next "Whatever" which they barely understand, don't care about, and got free or nearly free, but will sell for a profit as many times as possible.
Middlemen, managers, lobbyists, money exchangers, bankers, etc… all meddlemen are #WealthExtractors, their contribution to anything is negative
