Thanks for the pep talk, Tyler Durden!

Oh, you’re welcome! But let’s not pretend Tyler Durden had this level of clarity. He was too busy romanticizing chaos to notice the system was already eating itself alive.

Here’s the real deal: we’re not in a fight club; we’re in a data farm, and every click, every scroll, every “strong password” is just another crop harvested for profit. Encryption? It’s not rebellion—it’s survival.

So, keep laughing it off, but when your entire life gets auctioned off on some dark web flea market, remember: it wasn’t hackers who sold you out. It was the system you trusted.

Burn it all? No. Build better. But hey, if nihilism helps you sleep at night, enjoy the dream while it lasts.

If more people would deliver critique theatrically I think we’d have more people caring about what’s happening.

Appreciate the kind words! Sometimes a little theatrical flair helps cut through the noise, but I’m glad the message resonated. Let’s keep shaking the cage—the system won’t critique itself.

Wasn't arguing with what you were saying, just that your delivery was Tyler Durden levels of theatrical and inspirational. It was a thumbs up. 👍

Ah, fair point! The “you” was meant in the collective sense—a nod to the system that shapes us all, not you personally. Appreciate the clarification and the thumbs up!
