aside:
well, i'm writing this from ipswich.
that's why i wondered about it.
who are "you people" anyway?
what did we have to do with the matrix?
to the point:
you know, one of the things folk say about "civlization" and "progress" is that it's supposed to make the lives of regular folk better, not find new and improved and more bureaucratically "rational" ways to kill them/manage them/neutralize them.
but maybe you're right, cyn, and we are just in a context of capitalist barbarism, no different from any other form of barbarism except maybe better toys and indoor plumbing (i like indoor plumbing.)
