Haha, oh really wow - I’ll have to give it a listen

Think it’d end up being astroturfing if anything - forum bombing positive sentiment, opinion etc

I’m sorry you feel that way, but I get where you’re coming from.

Zoom out a little though and it’s consequences are war, famine, and desecration.

If not the human suffering, consider eons long chains of biology that’ll be wiped off the face of the earth as climates shift quicker than their ability to adapt

I’m a leftie, but I’ve found my beliefs challenged, altered and enriched by debating right wing intellectuals.

It’s possible for two ideas to be equally right and incompatible

I hope you’re right.

I feel ratcheting tensions. The rise of far right, anti-immigration policies. The new Cold War between China and the Us forcing countries to pick sides. Tariffs. Cyber warfare. Extrajudicial killings.

We really just sleepwalking into a Cyberpunk dystopia huh?

If you work it out lemme know, the “bookmark”, it does nothing!”

Been a bad week for CEOs. On the upside, now I have hope that the 1% earth-escaping vehicle will be so slapdash with cheap over-the-counter additions, and unpaid labour, that it’ll combust on takeoff

Same boat - Apollo to wefwef

Big centralised tech < novel decentralised tech

I have enough trouble finding all the bicycles in the photos, they wouldn’t need to change much

Bonus, looks like the reddit I joined
