I agree wholeheartedly with your general points. We are about to face an intense chaos, if we're not already in the midst of it. I'm less pessimistic on how many people believe media at face value. There's been large reductio

Treat the patient not the symptom. Looks>everything else is indicative of a much larger problem that needs addressing.

You can find counterarguments like this for any entrenched problem that has an obvious solution. When people want the solution they'll figure out those issues themselves.

We seem to be approaching enough chaos where major entrenched systems changes like this will start to become possible. There are no lobbying groups on behalf of 9am school start times. You have to break the national teachers unions to get t

Totally agree. Thats an issue thats also been occurring in the UK. Remember WannaCry in 2017? Probably caused by Torries defunding it. Lots of downsides to socialized healthcare with incompetent govs.

If every bubble has a video of the same authority figure(s) (within the group or outside of the group) saying directly contrary things it has to have an effect. The internet really was that though until the last 8-10 years. Once it reached

That's intensely reductionist. Also, the military's healthcare is some of the worst in the country. They couldn't even be sued for malpractice until 2021. Some systems have worked historically under gov control, and others ha

Those are a symptom of burgeoning skepticism. Just because people are acquiring newfound skepticism doesn't mean they'll believe all of the optimal and reasonable things. It goes back to normal where much like for all of previous

Greed being the common denominator makes it not the culprit. If greed were truly the culprit then they would be focused on making the most amount of money possible without constraints. It's poor leadership and short sightedness IMO.

Far too many don't trust the us gov to run such a critical service and our defense budget already effectively subsidizes Europe's socialized healthcare.

We've actually been approaching being ready for a few years now. Now more than ever people have begun to add a layer of skepticism and treat information as separate from reality itself. Remember 10-15 years ago? If it was on the news,

The reason I mentioned Cyberpunk is because it demonstrates a massive change in brand awareness, same for 2042. 5-10 years ago publishers would just ignore outrage and fix the bare minimum quietly and then leave it alone. Think of all the m

Greed isn't the true culprit. You don't make more money by making any % of your consumer base hate you.

Cyberpunk is related because at launch it was shoving crapware out the door. It actually worked mostly fine on my PC, so its not a personal thing. I love the game. It's the business practice of sending the customer their boots without

Whats most tragic is it's not expensive to just allow players to host it themselves for a game thats already multiplayer. It would do a lot for brand reputation. For some reason it seems like only in the last 2 years have publishers be

It's the political enhancement of the intellectual class that is its downfall. Thats what compels them to force it on others 'we have the answers' for something they have a <10% understanding of. It does select for a certa

It began even before the full blown culture wars. There was a real focus on 'predicting' what political leanings someone has based on minor expressions. It was the seed of looking at EVERYTHING in a hyper partisan political lens.

Once you know enough to know we barely know anything it pushes you towards extreme nihilism of anyone who uses their credentials to definitively state they know anything. Seeing a headline about cow farts burning the earth down, breathing [

The problem with Twitter is everything has much greater semantic similarity due to brevity. How the hell do you SEO a tweet? LLM might actually come in handy for that kind of backend search usecase. IMO the real issue with twitter is how it
