    How are all these governments and companies managing to enshitify everything? Yet, when it comes to real problems like world hunger, child poverty, and exploitation, no one even blinks an eye.

      It’s all about spying now infact by 2027 all vehicles mandated to have facial and body scanners that watch you at all times.

      Tech bros are taking over and they are building Bunkers because they know this isn’t sustainable and once it hits a certain point people will be out for blood.

      No one makes short term profit off of solving world hunger, so it doesn’t get solved. 🙈

      They can make safety, fuel efficiency, usability, and comfort improvements AND enshittify things too! These are complicated machines.

      The thing nobody is willing to admit is if free food and shelter for everyone becomes a thing, the population would explode. Every system in nature needs a balance. Any organism, animal, living thing, humans included, will increase in population until the limit of resources is hit. We have no natural predators so our population is limited solely by the resources we have access to. Feeding everyone would actually increase the problem of trying to feed everyone.

        Time is a resource, and in the modern world where near-full time parental involvement is assumed, it would effectively limit reproduction.

        Matter of fact, it is entirely possible that is a significant part of why birthrates keep declining.
