Deus Ex's influence on Elon Musk 'may be its longest, worst legacy,' says its writer
>"It's bizarre that Elon Musk would not recognize where he actually sits in the Deus Ex universe," says Grossman, "because it is not in the JC Denton role."

Lebedev an independent industrial magnate with aerospace background, has his own airfield, he's wealthy and seen as a bit of a private/eccentric, and he supports right-wing groups because he sees the government and other businesses as openly hostile to his life and others' lives. Musk is definitely more Lebedev than Page.

He contributed lines here and there but by and large, the MVPs on the project were Pacotti and Smith. Smith had to push super hard to even get the game to have the more open world hub stuff, as Spector preferred more tightly linear levels. Everything post-Paris is 100% Spector.

this may shock you but all stories exist in your head
they're not real
they're not documenting real events
they're pure fiction
if a character says "nice going, Richard", the author may intend for that to be a sarcastic comment, but if you want to believe he said it in earnest because that's the impression you have of the character then that's a perfectly valid interpretation because HE'S NOT REAL, he doesn't exist, he's make believe, he doesn't have a thought process, it's just words that you stitch into an image of a real person in your mind

social media is going to be remembered as a great evil as impossibly diabolical as Company Towns.

Here is an entity which determines the haves and have-nots of society, of course they are privately owned, of course they execute people's online lives with even more ease than North Korea, of course they have social credit systems, and of course they are cataloging the identities of all people in existence to feed into AI so they have zero security or expectation of privacy.

And the government says this is all perfectly legit because you clicked yes on a text box.

Twitter, Facebook, instagram, tiktok, Youtube, they're all going to be looked back on as humanity's strangest evils for this alone. This isn't even getting into the fact that 100% of their content is algorithmically chosen for you as to be as addictive as possible, even moreso than cigarettes, and it's given to all humans the moment they're old enough to hold a tablet.

Or getting into how these companies how dictate all politics so, of course the government can't stop them because they're the ones picking the leaders and blacklisting candidates from the public with the push of a button. Cambridge Analytica for one example. Again their selected government saying this is perfectly legal.

Don't regret a second of it though, on some old harddrive there's totally pictures of me and my clan boys hanging out on top of a 30 deep pile of of spanmass sampans.

Is it even POSSIBLE to play DXMP anymore? I used to obsessively decache every single mod and map so I have a pretty fucking rare collection... on my dead dad's harddrive... in a different city.

I know this is true but what the fuck do you call the last version of Twitter that did all of this but on giga-steroids? You could get banned on old twitter by disagreeing with a blue-checkmark. I lost my old account by telling an indian that free speech can't exist if the consequences are death.

I think the only reason Twitter hasn't imploded entirely is because as bad as he is, he's still more lenient and loves freedom more than the actual Californian Nazis who ran it previously. And worse: Every social media site is like that now. You'll get banned randomly if you even appear in some famous person's feed because they can order your digital execution if you annoy them.

Realistically the constitution has to be trashed because it's just too fundamentally anti-democratic (especially in regards to the economy) and loaded with too many veto points to be able to have a functional government with opposing disciplined political parties like we do today. Remember, the constitution was written in a context where basically they only considered property owning elite who mostly share the same interests as eligible voters. It literally wasn't designed for universal suffrage and mass politics.

Most Americans have been conditioned from early age to worship the constitution as a divinely inspired holy document though, so it probably wont happen.

Why do you have to beg the political elite to employ you so you can have health care?

We have these arguments about how it's fine that the rich Elite control all the normalfags, but they're literally choosing if you live or die, and they do it entirely on profit motives.

People bitch about Visa and Mastercard revoking people's own money, Healthcare has been doing that for ages. Before Obama and his health insurance mandates, Insurance Companies would literally revoke someone's healthcare if they detected that they were in a hospital as being the work of pre-existing conditions.

We should be fine with that, really with all sections of elite society deciding our version of a Caste system, simply because these other professionals won't work for free? (these other professionals not being the people who receive the majority of health care money btw)
