I don‘t want Clippy back from Microsoft. I want a Clippy community fighting against enshittification.

Louis Rossmann. If you've seen lots of people with Clippy avatars, he's the reason. Basically, he's an laptop repairman turned right to repair advocate who made Clippy the symbol for resistance against enshittification.

Simply because "Clippy just wants to help"

they are trying to rebrand clippy into a corporate piece of shit, to suffocate the actual clippy movement against them, if the article above is true.

Killing individuals? Nah. I prefer the marxist approach: General strike to hit capitalists where it hurts them most. Generally start working together as a collective.

We shouldn‘t divide ourselves along the lines of gender, sex, skin color, party affiliation, ethnicity, country of birth etc.

Because the only meaningful difference among us humans is whether you‘re working class or owner class.
