Cant imagine making 30 k a year and having to pay even 1600 in taxes. This is saying it will increase that much.

What is enshittification?
The phenomenon of online platforms gradually degrading the quality of their services, often by promoting advertisements and sponsored content, in order to increase profits. (Cory Doctorow, 2022, extracted from Wikitionary) source
The lifecycle of Big Internet
We discuss how predatory big tech platforms live and die by luring people in and then decaying for profit.
Embrace, extend and extinguish
We also discuss how naturally open technologies like the Fediverse can be susceptible to corporate takeovers, rugpulls and subsequent enshittification.

I mean, I agree with this and think it should be spread widely, but probably should be in politics or politicalmemes.
Enshittification is, from the sidebar, "The phenomenon of online platforms gradually degrading the quality of their services, often by promoting advertisements and sponsored content, in order to increase profits."
You can never vote in your life and still have to pay taxes. You could be as non-political as you want, you're still paying taxes. What's the point of pretending this only affects people who are into politics?
Also surely that's not correct on the sidebar right? Only online platforms? That's that's not what we're here for. If that's what it says someone fucked up. That's obviously not right.
This does NOT affect me as a European...
Well when the American economy collapses very soon and triggers a worldwide recession you'll probably feel it then
