The tech oligarchy has written about it, their guru Yarvin has preached about it, and now they are implementing it. They have slashed food and healthcare here in the US and are gobbling up the power, clean water, and clean air to try and create their cyber gods while they can.

National Parks exist because people fought to stop logging, mining, and development. These places were protected on purpose.
