Approaching the history of the Internet through the Cold War zeitgeist helps us see a sort of Schumpeterian quality in the network.

 


Interesting piece titled: A tale of two worlds - Apocalypse, 4Chan, WikiLeaks and the silent protocol wars.

    Schumpeterian

    Ok, I admit it, I had to look it up:

    "the central point of his (Joseph Schumpeter) whole life work [is]: that capitalism can only be understood as an evolutionary process of continuous innovation and 'creative destruction' [This] is still not taken into the bosom of mainstream theory, although many now pay lip service to it."

    I am the Schumpeter: DO Di DA DAHHH

    Capitalism is cannibalism. Infinite profit, infinite growth, infinite consumption, is simply not possible.These ARE the End Times but they have nothing to do with the mental illness known as christian fundamentalism. The Rapture will be a Rupture!

    Going on the dole is the ultimate ethical outcome. Prevent those tax dollars from going into the war fund.
