I think the "metaverse" meme can now be seized back from the Enemy. What is it? If we read it plainly, it's a "universe" of "metaphors", or a sort of multiverse of realities built from signs of various kinds which stand in for really anything. So a fully reclaimed "metaverse" would include every CAD layout used to design every product, every game world, every world an animator builds to create a film, every world that exists in a painting, every world that exists in a book, every world that exists in markets and empires and governments and corporations and religions and so on. A continuum of built worlds from the Human Mind. I think that's a thing worth speaking of, and I think it would be a perfect epitaph to the 88 billion dollar failure of the Worst Man on Earth to simply seize the word from him. Make it generic. Make it a term of art for weirdos who talk about philosophy, technology, and media. If the "metaverse" is taken this way, it really is where most of us work, where most money exists, and where the most valuable properties in the world under capitalism all exist. And it is a place in which a revolution must now take place, where the masses rise up and overthrow our oppressors. Arise! It's right to rebel!
