I have a hunch that in the terrifyingly near future, we're going to see the internet absolutely dominated by enshitification.

Don't get me wrong, it's bad now ...because like the frogs in hot water, we collectively just tolerate changes for the worse. But it used to be small incremental changes over a long period.

Then this Musk asshole comes along, looks at the frogs ever so slowly cooking.... and cranks the stove to max, pisses in the frog-pot, supplements the heating element with a welding torch, and flips the frogs off as he pours gasoline all over the kitchen.

And the frogs JUST FUCKING TAKE IT.

What message does that send to the rest of the internet?

You know… it would be funny but also sad and believable if he’s doing all of this just to spite the internet because we wouldn’t let that one emo leather longcoat pic die.

Edit: the pic

It's like Trump running for president because Obama and Seth Meyers roasted him in front of the world... So much awful shit in our world is a direct result of rich, whiney narcissists making things worse for everyone as collateral damage in whatever petty feud they've mostly invented in their heads.

But for real, I am actually fully convinced that that was the inception point in Trump’s head for the idea of going for the presidency.
