When fascism comes, at least Gruber can post about how he used to shop at Hugo Boss before it was cool.

@aral As someone said once: "It's good if it makes Gruber mad." Or similar.

@aral More concerned about optics than genocide. A collaborator.

@aral Well we also knew that Gruber called fedipact folk Misfit Looser Zealots. So we know he simps for surveillance capitalism already.

He doesn't care about how that collected data enables genocide. He didn't care when it was Facebook, so why would he care when it's Google?

@aral@mastodon.ar.al wow, siding with a huge genocidal corporation, so daring, very fireball

@aral You know, if it truly was "lick boots for money" I'd find it a lot more understandable and reassuring.

I don't think it's that. And I don't think he's getting paid.

I think it's just a natural, knee-jerk alignment with authority.

It would also be more reassuring if he weren't in such numerous company that way.

@codefolio Oh he’s getting paid. Not directly. But he’s getting paid by perpetuating the corporatocracy. They take care of their own.

@codefolio Updated the hash tag anyway so folks don’t get fixated on it :)

@aral To me he sounds indoctrinated whenever he talks about economics or politics. It's like he decided to be critical and discerning about fonts and UI and then called it a day. I hope he figures it out.tics
