[...] the internet is emulating the real world. We are trying to
recreate this capitalistic society we have on top of the internet. So
the internet has been mostly fuel on the capitalistic fire, by kind of
pretending to be something which will connect the whole world, but
actually having a capitalistic agenda.
Look at all the biggest companies in the world, they are all based on
the internet. Look at what they are selling: nothing. Facebook has no
product. Airbnb, the biggest hotel chain in the world, has no hotels.
Uber, the biggest taxi company in the world, has no taxis whatsoever.
The amount of employees in these companies are smaller then ever before
and the profits are, in turn, larger. Apple and Google are passing oil
companies by far. Minecraft got sold for $2.6 billion and WhatsApp for
like $19 billion. These are insane amounts of money for nothing. That is
why the internet and capitalism are so in love with each other.
