Kids need a little danger to grow.

Also, silicon valley must be turned into a radioactive wasteland. California’s average habitability will be improved.

Oh no. How terrible.

Youve got it backwards. Very recently russias been trying to catch up on atrocities, get back in shape, fit into that old ockrana uniform.

But other than tgat america outdid them by orders of magnitude, and this calendqr year started defending its orphan bone crown pretty hard.

Just got banned from a bunch of subs for saying murder bad? I dont want to get banned from more stuff so:

So i guess murder some subhuman filth with an mba today!

It may not fix anything, but it will feel good, and thats what matters!

Fucking hate those anti human filth pushing slop into everything. I want to take one apart with power tools.

Imagine grocery shopping.

When you started it was just a place where you paid for food. There were two near you. One with a kind of lackluster produce department but really good prices, and the bourgoise grocery store that only sold small overpriced portions with a great produce department. Plus the grocery section at wal mart, which is the grocery section at wal-mart

Over the past decade things have started to change. More cameras, security guards, etc. Prices have gone up a ton. That sucks.

At some point you noticed some items were replaced with weird replicas. Wax fruit, sugar water instead of pasta sauce, that kind of thing. You got your kid their favorite kind of apples, and they were fucking wax. You paid full price, too.

Then they started putting everything behind glass. Including the fruit. You cant check if that melon’s any good now. They replaced the checkers. You gotta do that yourself. There are secret policemen wandering the aisles. There arent any more employees, so getting anything behind glass takes about an hour. Shopping is an all day affair now.

Your best friend went shopping yesterday and youre pretty sure theyre not the same thing that came back. You dont know if this is a pod person or mind controll or your friend is just gone, but this thing keeps trying to get you to ingest this weird smelling pink slop. It got your kid. Your kid got… Replaced you guess. You hope. They want you to drink it too.

Anyway, this has nothing to do with google. Just a cool srory thats not about anything.

Sucks killing silicon valley pod dwellers wouldnt fix any of this.

Okay so a real reply if weve still got an audience:

Notice how you attack me for being both ‘over simplified’ and ‘florid’ in this thread? You need two things. The first is to defend the status quo. The second is to feel edgy transgressive and clever.

And youre just doing that with ideas you misunderstand so badly i cant even bring myself to correct you on. Youre not applying logic; youre just rationalizing.

Things are sometimes simple though. Violence indeed bad. Best avoided. Not a good thing. Youve clearly lived a very sheltered life and violence to you is just an abstraction. Youve never experienced the world so its really easy to imagine its all as flat and consequence free as your abstractions.

Sorry, forgot about nominative determinism.

So to start off with, youre using one example of game theory, the prisoners dilemma, as a stand in for right/wrong.

Which is so fucking many levels of insane i cant even address here.

Are you in the bay area? That seems like san francisco brand stupid.

Then you project your oversimplification onto me. Thats cool. Inspecting your intellectual lacunae is hella cool. You should try it.

Might be kids (under-40s) these days dont remember functional search. Or theres no easy packages available.

No. There were much less stupid much less destructive ways to do this.

But not under capitalism. Fits of inchoate violence and self destruction, disposing of lives by the millions, are the only way to error correct without ending capitalism. Moloch requires his sacrifice, as he is our one and only god.

And since none of us seem willing to apostacy, because that would be bad for some reason, im glad to see our daily sacrifice of innocent blood may at least bring tomorrow. Or a couple hours of it, at least.

Is≠aught≠ expectation≠hope. Become human; nourish that unique capacity for abstraction so few other species have.

I think systems based on violence are bad, because i think violence is bad. Because theyre systems of violence, i do not think theres a way to be rid of them short of violence, but i think avoiding systematizing that violence minimizes the collateral harms.

I dont think murder being illegal has saved more lives than it has cost. I will not elaborate upon my ecidence, but it is from places squalid and opulent, decadent and visceral. The light it casts you in makes you look like a violent selfish child willing to kill–by proxy only, of course– to not have to consider the violence that is every calorie of sustenance to them.

No. Im saying its a price that has been paid, and we may as well get something for it.

Get your conscience somewhere other than kalshi

Those arent great, but literally everyone dies if we dont end fossil fuels, and this is apparently the only way to do that without ending capitalism

Which nobody actually wants to do, i guess.

Thats the big tell you dont actually give a shit about those third world farmers.

No i actually understand an amount of psychology and moral philosophy beyond some shit i read in a pop-sci or cold war history book so ive got a little more depth than a superficial understanding of ‘game theory’, but i do assess the people around me! The reliably bad ones are called cops and they will always do the worst thing.

More laws helps nothing. Laws are just excuses to not fix problems.

Oh no. Higher pc component prices! Somebody hasnt shopped computer recently.

It could also spark a serious decline in fossil fuel use.

You think people will instinctively collaborate and not be shitty, therefore we should give proven-bad actors more cover to act badly?
