No one EVER learns the lesson of Surf Dracula
A tweet by @topherflorence that reads, "back in the day if u did a tv show called surf dracula you'd see that fool surfing every week in new adventures but in the streaming era the entire 1st season gotta be a long ass flashback to how he got the surfboard until you finally get to see him surf for 5 min in the finale"

Marc andreseen and the techno fascists are trying to manufacture a narrative that blames the population for turning away from the social contract instead of the reality that the billionaire elites have broken and shredded the social contract for profit.
This is the language inversion of fascism
Marc Andreessen breaks down the concept of "The Deal." In the past, there was an understanding in society: a tech founder would start a company, create jobs, get rich, pay taxes, then donate their money to philanthropy - all with the support of the press. In the last 10 years, every part of "The Deal" was broken; money became evil, tech became evil, and philanthropy began to be seen as evil.
