There are so many dead ends in your thought processes here, though! Holes I can drive a truck through. What if's a-plenty! > post-scarcity world Why do you believe you deserve to be invited into such a world by the owners of that world? Have you not been noticing any patterns in the news, especially in the past 20 years, accelerating in the last 3? I observe that run-of-the-mill humans are not loved nor respected. Elon winked at us and said "post-scarcity" and toyed with "MBI". Did you wink back? (It's ok to say yes, I wanted to wink as well, he's a great optimist.) There is no scarcity now, for you and I. There is rampant slavery and injustice all over the world. Add up all the work done and then estimate how many slaves have lived and died complete lives to make cheap crap and give you comfort over just your lifetime? 1? 2? Sugar is over a hundred times cheaper than it should be. The money systems are rigged for theft and twisted beyond reckoning. Misallocated capital at every turn. We have thrived because of and in spite of the current systems. Our lives depend on this unjust system! > However, I hope we can get past that, and simply accept that people exist, and let them enjoy existing ... When I watched The Matrix for the first time, I knew nothing about the movie. Had seen no ads, was kindof heads down in work at the time. A friend wanted me to go see it. I got all the way to the morpheus red/blue pill scene and he's talking about what the matrix was. He was going on about taxes and religion and then slavery. And I thought, disappointed, oh geez, this is gonna be some race baiting thing... I was in this little petty politics mindframe. Blacks and whites. Liberals and conservatives. And then right after that, some goofy retro tech sci-fi and I'm thinking, "interesting computer graphics!" but still not understanding anything. And then, jump scare, surprise! First person shot, eyes slide open, water noises; we're in a pod. It's an experience I may never have again because of the surprise factor and how it awakened me to monstrous possibilities in my own existence. My mental frame of self and this existence widened considerably that day. Our matrix of propaganda and lies we tell ourselves has you. Has you willingly and you're grumpy with me for saying so. That's the powers that be's greatest trick: getting us to fight with each other over their invented reality and their pet causes rather than fighting them. What I will say now is out of love even if it sounds incredibly harsh. Your words make you sound fat, dumb and happy. You sound content, and maybe a little bored with life. The loving part is in the word 'sound'. I know you are not those things, or need not be them if you are some of them. World War 3 will be another banker's war. It appears to be right around the corner and America is starting it/funding it. You must oppose war in all its forms. Small and large offensives are abhorrent. Oppose all war out of principle from now on. If you ever find yourself making excuses for war or even for funding someone else's war again, then you and I cannot be friends. War is a red line.
