Dear Young People, We’re sorry. Our actions, and our inaction, have brought us to this moment. It shouldn’t have to fall on your shoulders. But we need your help. Some of you may have never known a world without the internet. That doesn’t make you naive. It makes you native to a system we, your elders, over-trusted. We thought the tech moguls of our time were different. We believed they were building something new: ethical, open, progressive. But in truth, they just put a new face on old-school corruption. They became the new titans of industry. And while we were distracted, they consolidated unprecedented power - economic, digital, and now political. We are watching - in real time now - an authoritarian coup. And the technocrats are either funding it or failing to stop it. But here’s the thing: They only have power because we gave it to them. And therefore, we can take it back. 💥 Enter the Digital Exodus A peaceful, people-powered walkout from the Big 5: Meta, Google, Apple, Amazon, X. (throw in Uber if you like) This is our resistance. Our refusal to keep feeding the system that’s breaking the world. We move to smaller platforms, alternatives to the Big5 (like Bluesky, Mastadon, Proton, Discord) Yes, it might be a little slower. Yes, it might be less polished. But this is the price of freedom, and the reward is everything - a more habitable planet, more equal distribution of resources, opportunities for growth and housing, a world that invests in its children and nature. You are not powerless. You are not too late. You are the JEDI force for good. 📎 Learn the Plan:
