Can people please stop implementing ideas that were intended as satire?
- drewzero1 3y agoOr as social criticism! A lot of tech giants seem to be trying to bring about the techno-future of scifi and completely missing the point that a lot of it is a dystopian hellscape serving as a thin veil over commentary on contemporary society.
- ChainOfFools 3y agoThe sense that you're being asked, or coerced, to participate in realizing someone's shallow, misunderstood, but aggressively peddled reading of a dystopian social commentary fantasy scenario is very near to the heart of what makes tech bro culture so obnoxious for everyone else.
- MR4D 3y agoNo. That's the only way we know we're in a simulation. Reality could never be this stupid.
