We musn't be unkind to the boomers. When we're their age, the methods for assaulting our poor old brains will be ever so more sophisticated.

- willis936 10mo agoI'm not blaming them. It's really frustrating that old people are taken advantage of. We shouldn't need to be so cynical. This isn't the star trek future we were promised. Edit: It's similarly frustrating about the zoomers. Parents are derelict of duty by not defending their kids and preparing them for the world they are in.
- rkomorn 10mo ago> This isn't the star trek future we were promised. It is, though. We're just in the part leading up to WWIII.
- natebc 10mo agoYeah, that bit of the Star Trek Universe is something not many folks know about. You want to be born into the utopia, not before.
- kubb 10mo agoSci-fi will never materialize. But the ones passionate about it are so desperate for the faux future that they won't be able to tell when they're being duped. Just wait until the next great collapse, a disaster big enough to force change. Hopefully we'll have the right ideas lying around at the time to restructure our social communication system. Until then, it's slow decline. Embrace it.
