But... We are all fish

I'm an anarchist, and my take is that anarchism isn't pacifism, and "no coercion" is a bad summary. It's more about the absence of hierarchical coercion and instead distribution of power to all people and communities.

If you're going around burning down houses, your anarchist neighbors are going to use force to take away your matches and gasoline if you don't stop.

It's all bullshit, and you've hit the nail on the head.

The only way out is through each other: change your workplace to be less bullshit. Demand dignity. Maybe bring your friends and make a co-op.

Ironically, as I've become more senior (11+ years at a faang company) I've had to do less and less of that "look around and understand everything" work because of time pressure. But I rely on my experience to be more confident that I can ignore the details and focus on the reason I'm in this file.

Well, that, and if it gets too messy I give up and call in a junior engineer...
