    I agree, but it is. Everyday they work toward turning another part of human existence, another experience or need or want, into a service or product to be sold and bought. Even the granular experiences of our relationships with each other are being commodified and enough people are buying them to grow those markets which outcompetes historic sources of those experiences, which are being degraded in quality, at the same time.

      a free-market approach is only tolerated by the people as long as it benefits the masses. as soon as the people see that they’re losing, they’re violently gonna take what they need; i have faith in that. so i don’t think that neoliberalism is long for this world.
