In China, you can’t exist without a smartphone, because for all existential things you have to do (paying bills, buying tickets etc.) , you are forced to use the almighty wechat app. Smartphones are a tool to manipulate and to spy on the population. It is a tool utilized by the ruling class, to control the masses. I hate the future and I hate “progress”.

    “It isn’t that we built a system that specifically punishes and prohibits the poor and homeless. It’s those darned lazy people who won’t jump through the hurdles we installed to help them.”

        Sorry, I thought the homeless were just supposed to beg people to be able to use the default currency of the United States.

        Ya know, the point you made in the previous comment that was what I was responding to.
