“My earnings should never come at the expense of those less fortunate.” Sounds great until you think about it. No one should ever sell products or services to poor people…?

Dallen is 51% done with The Privatization of Everything: How the Plunder of Public Goods Transformed America and How We Can Fight Back
The most bothersome part of this book is the assumption that there are only for profit corporations and government agencies in America.

This feels like an introduction written for people who don’t really need to hear the introduction.

“Privatization is a transfer of power over our own destiny as individuals and as a nation to unelected and unaccountable and inscrutable corporations and their executives.”

I can’t tell who is talking to who about who. I stopped listening closely and because it has like 11 different words for him/her I don’t know what is going on in this conference.

Losing interest. Fatalism isn’t that interesting.

Adrian Tchaikovsky likes this book. Probably means I’m going to hate it.

Don’t care. The humans vs non human “forms” is just not portrayed in an interesting way.

This is a “personhood” and “oppression” narrative and it’s not thinly veiled. It’s nakedly the whole point of the story. The author is just beats us over the head with it. It ruins what could have been an intriguing idea.

Frankenstein mixed with Pinocchio. “Am I a good dog?” “I hope I’m a good dog” “Where’s master?” “I don’t want master to be mad” “I disobeyed master”

This book is garbage. The dog is too stupid for me to care what happens to it. And the way it talks/thinks is grating. This book would be far more interesting if it were written in the third person. Not knowing how dumb the dog is would help.

This feels more like a persuasive article. Scholarly adjacent. A mashing together of other people’s research

“I’m demonstrating the misuse of free speech to prove that it exists.”

Lots of funny good quotes. Still not sure what this is about.
