My vision of software is the same as for economy/politics : we are just drowned into unnecessary complexity which make it look like fulfilling essential needs is unreachable,
On the net we want just to read / watch / share text, images, videos and sound. The rest is just dead weight.
In economy the only question is whether the resources exist for everyone to get work, a home, food. They do. All the overwhelming stories of complexity we hear tend to hide this reality.
Just like the first world war. The "Marxists" find a way to cripple Germany's economy.

This time the "marxists" used the "green" energy to effectively cripple the German market.
And they were at the same time too busy dealing with mass immigration to figure out what was happening.
Well the "marxists" won this battle. Lets see how Germany responds this time.

When we talk about late-stage capitalism we don't discuss enough how first world countries have been killing thousands of young workers in developing countries with silicosis of the lungs for more than 40 years because people like to pay more money for jeans that look worn and don't last as long.
Oh, and a stone washed or acid washed jean require 70+ liters of water and acid and toxic chemicals.
