Just vultures. It's pure corruption. People of the kind that already rule Russia.
Any kind of progress, justice, right etc they don't respect.
Big fish eating smaller fish is one thing they respect, and they also want more privacy while stealing, and the ability to spy after everyone else and coerce courts and institutions.
It's that simple.
Agreed. We have allowed our democratic system to be quietly stolen from us without even really noticing. I think we either need to properly reclaim it or to start new systems away from it. The Fediverse is a really good example of the latter.
The fediverse exists in the web, while they exist in the reality and command police, people in airports and train stations, military, internet service providers, etc.
That's why we should follow the example of the French and do a Revolution every now and then!
Revolutions are destructive and have bad potential. But a certain degree of unchecked chaos is useful.
