When we start talking about god-like technology, the assumptions lean toward devices, electronics, etc. The economic bullies who use coercion, though, keep us from realizing that the 'technology' most prominent is basic advertising and tax schemes that have turned our economic model into a class war that few even could guess exists, nor that most have already lost. Now, the marketing algorithms they use are pushing toward the investment 'opportunity' of civil war.
If you want Change, keep it in your pocket. That's the only vote they count.
