They’re coming after tech. Don’t worry, changing terminology will change the underlying issues. Just be careful not to cause thoughtcrime once neuralink is feasible in a few decades.
- there_the_and 6y agoNo, the people who want this change literally built the tech. [1] All of you getting triggered and crying from the peanut gallery need to develop some perspective and go back to work. https://twitter.com/xpasky/status/1271477451756056577?s=21 https://twitter.com/xpasky/status/1271477451756056577?s=21
- spacephysics 6y agoRegardless of who invented it, it’s the notion of changing how one speaks, and it’s vocabulary, to gain control over people. Don’t abide by the change/are against it? Then you’re a racist fool, like all the others. It’s a move towards further tribalism. This isn’t about a functionally better term for it. It’s a push during the mob rage over names, statues, and symbols. They already want to shutdown stem, first for a day, then more. Let’s not debate these symbols, in coherent discourse, let’s label those opposed as racist, and demand change or else more chaos will ensue.
