I caught on to Kaptain Ketamine's fascism very late in the game, but I was never an actual fan. I worked with loads of tech people, see, and when I heard them speak and compared it to how Kaptain Ketamine spoke, I knew pretty much right from the start he didn't know a damned thing; that he was just slinging jargon to baffle journalists with bullshit.
So as his increasingly obvious fascism was revealed, it wasn't actually that huge a surprise for me, nor did it require me to rethink the world.
