Late stage rigged market capitalism is eating itself in every sector now that it struggles to find room left to grow/metastasize, including in economic sectors with much higher stakes.
It’s just well exemplified in entertainment. Hollywood used to be in the business of telling stories, now it’s in the business of regurgitating established IPs and literally using profit maximizing narrative formulas rather than bothering with risky originality, when it isn’t shelving completed stories for tax advantages, robbing the commons, you and I, of what they owe the society that facilitates their insatiable greed.
Gaming is now just the business of building microtransaction traps disgused as video games.
Entire industries have been perverted to betray the very goods/services they were created to and exist to provide in favor of market capitalism grifts and scams that provide more short term profit, usually cannibalizing their ability to provide said products/services at their former quality in the process.
And yet we wonder why our supposedly developed nation mortality rates are skyrocketing for newborns and mothers, in our FOR PROFIT healthcare and health insurance industry. Gee, it’s a mystery!
