          It’s not his fault though. It’s due to all the techno-optimist propaganda spouted out by various media channels by the techbros and the people profiting off of fossil fuels.

              Surely that’s not accurate… I’m sure you haven’t listened to as much Joe Rogan was he has lol.

            Yah. In my youth I was hopeful of tech saving us. But now seems very unlikely. Just like AI. it’s not going to save us it’s going to make some people very rich.

          On a global scale, yeah, probably top 10%

          Locally, not really. Just the average American income.

        See, structures dont exist and there are only differences if kind, not if scale. Anyone who says otherwise is a filthy fucking commie and needs to die in the camps.

        So your feiend sounds great. Great friend. Keep that one close. He (because clearly someone i agree with wouldn’t be of an inferior sex) is one of the good ones. Keep him close and never call him on his shit.
