I'll be risking being contrary to popular opinion saying this, but can we go back to focusing on tech? I'd rather leave these types of 'floor is lava' social discussion to the philosophy majors of the world who enjoy it. I feel like we, as a community, get sidetracked by the bloodlust for drama and the media respondeds to that demand by pandering to the lowest denominator. So-called justice porn has no place in a productive society.
- fatbird 10y agoYour whole comment is indicative of why SV is now in the situation it's in, where disruptive apps aren't enough to overcome idiocy that the rest of us outgrew decades ago. "So-called justice porn has no place in a productive society." I'm screencapping this as a warning sign on the road to downfall-by-hubris. Seriously, shake your head. Productive society without justice is every dystopian nightmare we've been imagining since we started wondering what tomorrow might be like.

- fgandiya 10y agoThe tech has impact on a lot of areas. I don't think ignoring them is particularly healthy.
