If you own a computer it should be illegal for a company to not let you easily install your own software. This includes crap like tvs and refrigerators. Let me put Debian on my dishwasher.

The founder of the Futurist movement was also co-author of the Fascist Manifesto.

Modern day fascists are trying something similar with crypto, A.I. and space flight, but it's more of a grift than an attempt at creating a coherent ideology plus aesthetic.
