      Human nature? Greed? Racism? Biggotry?

      There’s an upsetting number of topics… And now I’m depressed. Because life is depressing when you think about it too much, isn’t it?

        It sure is. It’s important to touch grass on a daily basis to stay sane. I personally go outside take a stroll and caress some leaves.

        Regarding your initial point : I see “capitalism” as the family of systems that enable that kind of IT monopoly. Sure, human traits such as greed and bigotry are probably the source of evil but it seems to me they have to be tapped, and enabled. The fact that the conversation often ultimately turns back to capitalism is legitimate imho.
