Kafka gets really chilling when you realize all that bureaucratic oppression was done with nothing but a paper and pencil

No phones

No computers

No databases

No internet

No neural networks

No AI

Now they have all those things.

kafka’s bureacracy was never malicious it’s an indifferent thing that chews up lives because it’s easier to do what the paperwork says to than correct it even when that’s wrong
