I've been wondering: will future historians have more public records to go through, or less? It's fascinating to read through letters and telegraphs of Albert Einstein, yet I wonder whether our digitized world will leave the same trace. While on the one hand public figures share a lot more personal information on the internet, which will always be preserved through articles, replies, screenshots etc., chat conversations, which somewhat replace letters, are encrypted, often with disappearing …
I don’t know who needs to see this…

The President and his lickspittles in Congress are introducing legislation to shield fossil fuel companies from liability for their intentional and knowing actions to emit GHGs, fully aware of the damage, destruction and death that would cause.

Most capitalists, as a class, don't think "oh, we should fire people to make sure we don't lose control." But, as here, a few people do. All it takes is a few because you have highly class aware companies like BlackRock, which own enough stock to just force boards to force CEOs to lay people off. Strongly worded letters from private equity can kick off firing sprees in FAANG. Everyone else just follows their lead because "they must have some information we don't" or "they're smart, so we should follow their lead."
It takes a very tiny portion of the capitalist class to maintain the system. It mostly acts without any centralized control channel. That's one of the the things that makes the system so stable.
I'd rather have it and not need it than need it and not have it.
