Yeah it's really frustrating to know how long this conversation has been happening and there's still be minimal change, often no change disguised by marketing or quiet conversions back to the status quo. CEOs and the rich who are bankrolling this shit need to start facing real consequences.

But by then it will be far too late for the rest of us.
