In the spirit of being a hater: if someone is gonna write a book on how capitalism has taken over the design industry and practice ( you know which one), put your money where your mouth is and release a PDF at least of the book for free. Do it without the expectation of capital and then let’s see how robust that argument is

Linkedin is a cesspool of performative enthusiasm. Oh btw, I found your latest piece of writing truly inspiring and excited to see how you will continue to scale your business ;)
