For sure, they're able to see the horrors of the system, but can't understand that these horrors aren't aberrations but necessary outcomes of the system functioning as intended.
I do find it funny how the author criticizes the enshittification theory as only partially correct, only to propose their own theory which is also incorrect. Perhaps correct theories can only be established through scientific methods and thorough study of history ๐ค. Or perhaps you just need to have a blog and an audience ๐คท
I find it's actually kind of interesting to see what people get wrong when they try to reason through this stuff on their own. It's useful to identify the common misconceptions because it helps focus the messaging.
That is a very good point. After all, a lot of Marx's work was synthesized by correcting the errors in other previously proposed theories, such as dialectics. I agree that it's a good opportunity to seek out the flaws in this type of thinking and establish good arguments that counter it. I will try to remember this instead of allowing it to frustrate me.
