>but the people still yearn to be abused
Reminds me of Agent Smith's PoV from the Matrix, that humans define their existence through suffering. The first version of the matrix had everyone living in paradise and made the system unstable as humans couldn't accept it and would try to wake up from it, dying in the process. Once they introduced misery, humans accepted the programming. Yeah, it's a fantasy movie, but it has great symbolisms that rings true.
- nebula8804 4y agoHmm thats some good insight I forgot about. My thinking was that humans have too much time on their hands and thus have accepted to filling their time by being abused because what else are they going to do?
- DesiLurker 4y agoits not just misery, its misery with hope. otherwise things go downhill too. I guess this is where technology hate is coming from, the hope is getting extinguished by moving most of the fruits of technology to select few. I also feel tech these days is largely about making new toll booths instead of new roads.
