Neoborn Caveman delivers a pro-humanity critique of compliance experiments reshaping choices into cages, exposing how banks, parking, and services add friction to analog options through app mandates while presenting digital paths as convenient, warns of inertia leading to total tracking where refusal becomes suspicious, highlights how each reasonable rung builds inescapable infrastructure linking to digital IDs and programmable currency, and urges embracing inconvenience now through cash use and analog insistence to preserve autonomy before alternatives vanish.
Key Takeaways
- Compliance relies on voluntary inertia.
- Friction disguises digital mandates.
- Analog alternatives become burdensome.
- Normalization expands control scope.
- Refusal signals wrongdoing in systems.
- Infrastructure locks in surveillance.
- Inconvenience preserves future options.
- Cash maintains independent choices.
- Awareness breaks gradual entrapment.
- Humanity requires deliberate resistance.
Sound Bites
"Have you noticed how we're living through the largest compliance experiment in human history, and most people think they're just getting better customer service?"
"The world is being reshaped so that certain choices become nearly impossible to make."
"Many banks now require app-based authentication for anything beyond basic logins."
"Don't have a smartphone? Well, you can visit a branch during business hours—assuming there's still one near you, and assuming you can get there when it's actually open."
"It's friction disguised as security. Inconvenience packaged as protection."
"Have you tried to park somewhere recently without an app? Tried to access certain government services without downloading something?"
"Each system, taken individually, seems reasonable. Each one offers an analog alternative. Technically."
"But have you noticed how those alternatives work? They're slower. They require extra steps. They make you feel like you're being difficult."
"What we're watching is a carefully constructed ladder where each rung seems reasonable in isolation."
"Once the infrastructure is fully digital, fully tracked, fully programmable—asking nicely for your freedom back isn't going to cut it."
