Welcome to 2030. I own nothing, have no privacy, and life has never been better

They already feel they are better, thats why we get laws for thee but not for me.

Notice it's "you" will own nothing, not "we".

"Once in awhile I get annoyed about the fact that I have no real privacy. No where I can go and not be registered. I know that, somewhere, everything I do, think and dream of is recorded. I just hope that nobody will use it against me."
The consensus seems to be that this is a propaganda piece (or at least heavily opinionated by the writer) but I just don't understand how they could write this with a positive frame of mind. The article is a strange mixture of perspectives that don't seem consistent. Bizarre.

Heheh. Sure. If I'm not at home, my sex-toys are up another stranger's bum. It made no sense for us to own anything anymore. My brain implant keeps me indifferent and drugged. Consuming and obedient... I'm happy.

Then a bit of soma and some orgy-porgy

In modern context, with Musk censoring and banning everyone and everything he doesn't like, having a backdoor into a country's financial system and probably also deportation, that statement is ominous as hell.

Seriously. It seems like the subconscious anxieties and fears of the writer's mind come through in statements like this and a few others. Whatever positives (real and imagined) there are about the situation, there is an underlying loss of personal autonomy that causes a sense of unease. The thing that's continuing to intrigue me now is: did the writer intend for that to come through, showing the losses a society of that nature would sustain as a commentary on those that promote it, or are they unaware that their words reveal that distress and anxiety? Idk, weird article.

I thought you were making that up because it was too relevant, so I grabbed my copy and there it is
one of these days you will be vaporized. You see too clearly.
