And with no technology! Perhaps become some kind of ascetic monk.

That is not a good thing. It means they have internalized this level of control and slavery. Finding comfort in the panopticon.

If the one thing people revolt over is those companies, that consumerism, then our civilization is dead and it is not worth to save it.

Yes, time for a reset. A reset of all the influence foreign companies have on my country! It is many the times I have daydreamed of seizing their assets and pushing them out... Goo…

I can sense the scream of a million bubbles popping up. I see it in the tea leaves.
