New Someone who will repackage it in many small containers.

"There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge."

-- Isaac Asimov
New Wouldn't think they'd be buying on Amazon

New The only clarity I can deduce from this factoid..
is dire re any Hopes that Bezos (nor any of the others worldwide, building Mega-Corporations == Monopolies) pandering to every whim of the Fattest-cats' unquenchable and limitless desires to *each* have infinite new Toys as demonstrate their ... raison d'etre? ... aka the shallowness of greed. I mean: Robber Barons reprise, implying that Consumers will continue to entirely ignore the global-energy-Cost of feeding this reptile-brain scale of wanting-More-Moar Stuff forever.
ie Look for no Leadership in phasing-in any semblance of making such changes as would place Planetary survival over the same mind-set as the first Barons and their ilk.. all-along since.

You cannot Legislate 'survival ethics'--only shame the most recalcitrant --> towards something resembling personal ethical behavior. This tack seems not-to-work with such as the Orange Menace and *his* definitions of Bizness-sans-any Ethic whatsoever: look where he has 'Taken' the dis-US in two years? Eh?

Bezos et alia {still} Suck in that, as do--apparently--most of their consumers, ergo ... ...
Imagine then if you dare: say the next Ten Years of This-New-Tech-AI-Grade sales propaganda -vs- any alternative which, Believes that Science IS about truthiness--at least as its aspiration. It won't matter at all, the fact that millions? would prefer Not-to Broil, if modrin psych-oriented Sales-as-Usual control the masses' Actions on a daily basis.

tl'dr: its not so much that The Good™ are Stupid / ergo Evil shall always win ..and similar cynical one-liners of cha. cha. cha..
What Matters is that: only via the concerted daily efforts of millions.. Could this Titanic miss the Iceberg.



Hope I'm MISSING something in this syllogism.. Really. Because if it's valid: We're All Toast. (Not to mention the trillions of co-critters), usually not worth a second-thought ..within the mindsets inculcated into all Muricans (and lots of non-Muricans) via the credo of 'Capital'-ism/that Bible for Consumers.

Carrion
It's sometimes indistinguishable from burnt toasted-things

Oh.. and.. Fuck *You* Jeff! and all who 'sale' in her.
(I confess to using/abusing my once-offer of Free shipping past the pay-wall; snared a few items I had resolved not-ever-to-use-Amazon to obtain. It was only for a month of that carrot.) Bad moi.
I deem Amazon to be exactly akin to methyl-benzoyl-ecgonine-hydrochloride, that favorite white crystalline powder: among its many Users. (Some now in the White Haus of die Gruppen-führer? ... for a while longer.)
