Especially that whole ‘listening to reason’ thing ..
Well. I dunno, actually.
In some ways, I do want The Feed. But in other ways, I definitely don’t want Drummers. Okay, some aspects of Drummers.

- tannschnauzer 1y agoThe Diamond Age is yet another terrible future that many readers take as awesome, for reasons I can never figure out. The Primer that everyone likes is mostly just a human remote-teaching—certainly, the best parts of its outcomes are from that. One specific person caring very much and dedicating lots of time and focus to teaching this kid. Meanwhile, the mass-production Primer without that aspect is just a brainwashing device.
