It’s important to make a distinction between liberals who strive for moral purity through performativity, and people who value human life by recognizing the inequalities in labour and material security under capitalism. Narratives that reproduce the idea that people are just fundamentally impure and can’t stick to their values only strengthens liberalism’s claim to morality.

“Secret cabal” as in capitalism and its imperatives sure, pretty out in the open though.

Almost like capitalism seeks to dominate every element of material life and the internet is dependent on its material infrastructure to function.
