Maybe a dream about capitalism or what I know
In my dream I just want to buy something to drink in an unknown shop on the edge of something like re:publica. But I can’t find anything and want to leave straight away. Someone in front of me got tangled up in the complicated exit barrier. I don’t feel like waiting for the exit to clear, so I try to go around the outside of the barrier. But the barrier is intelligent and automatic, it grabs me by the neck with a mechanical paw and pushes me to the ground, where I have to wait until a supermarket employee frees me. Of course she comments on it in detail, saying it’s just hard to understand why people always do this, etc. It’s uncomfortable and very embarrassing, and to console myself I think: At least I can write it down for my technology diary.
