Imagine:

You have been educated and socialized into a white supremacist capitalist patriarchy with a long history (presence) of violence and colonization. You are a very tiny part of a complex and indifferent machine — a machine actively seeking to destroy that which it cannot exploit. How might you respond to learning about your programming?
