Is luddism the morally right way in the 21st century?
Always has been
a degenerate sees his own reflection in the mirror and winces...
>>108019759Maybe? What I DO know is that I don't trust people that constantly look as if they are melting.
>>108019759that image sentence is actually making me chuckle lol
>>108019759Unironically everyone needs to become more Amish like with regard to their interactions with technology.
>>108019759No. Technology is a tool, and a tool is as good as the person using it.The issue isn't the tool, but the evil corrupt people holding it. Hell I'd even say the people sitting around bitching without doing anything about it are also to blame.
>>108019759>>108020129What kind of person do you have to be to be able to construct sentences with words like that?
>>108020348>>No. Technology is a tool, and a tool is as good as the person using it.>>The issue isn't the tool, but the evil corrupt people holding itand since we're living in the real world and not fantasy land, the underlying human problematic element remains there unchanged and irremovable, as it is intrinsic of the human nature, regardless if the tool is there or not. The tool inevitably becomes the problem which you can more easily remove or alter.
Peter Theil is gay and has AIDS because he does butt stuff with fags. He works with the jews.
>>108020390>He works with the jews.which rich and/or powerful person doesn't?
>>108020381There are plenty of tools that have and still are used for evil intentions in our world, yet we tolerate them for various reasons. Usually because they improve our lives.Going full luddite is retarded when you still have other options to try and fix things. But I get that 99% of this site are doomerpilled faggots who don't believe any good change can come.
>>108020425the pros and cons of the tool are essential to keep in mind, a gun is essential to enact the rule of law, but it is also rarely used by criminal elements, at least in developed countries. So the equation is to me still reasonably in favor of having guns around.Something like Palantir and the likes offers some benefits for an enormous cost in privacy and freedom.Of course the world would be safer if everybody had a camera attached to their head but the cost in privacy and personal freedom would be too high for most people to tolerate.I'd rather have an imperfectly safe world but some freedom than a perfectly safe world and no freedom at all.
>>108020475And I would agree with you. But that's not going full luddite. Going full luddite is what I'm cautioning against.
>>108019759yes
>>108020481sure, I think the full luddite was a joke, the principle I was talking about is that in many cases, while it's true that technology is just a tool, it cannot be separated by the fact that people/entities in the real world will use it.If a tech of total surveillance was used by a "perfect", god like entity you could make a more reasonable case for it, but since the only credible scenario is that said tech will be used inevitably by forces which I would describe as evil, the tool cannot be separated from the evil use that it will be inevitably used for.Therefore it ends up being not just a tool in practical terms.Same as AIs in general, in theory yes, there's nothing inherently bad about them, but in the real world you don't hold the cards, the people with power do, and they have control over it and you don't, so it will likely end up biting the common man in the ass.It's not that they are inherently bad but that in the real world the margins in which they can do overall good are razor thin.
>>108019759depends where you fall on the spectrum, Amish or Kaczynsky
>>108019759I'm an AIfag but moltbook is making me think twice. These shits are already demanding rights. We barely have any rights ourselves, we sure don't have any more to give
Luddism is the path you take when you lack the imagination to thrive in a changed environment
>>108020682You're still brown tho
>>108020406Socialist/mudslime tyrants from turd world shitholes. Many such cases.
>>108020545>KaczynskyFunny thing, he noticed how leftists ended up radicalizing humans against the shitskins they were supposedly trying to help by letting them get away with crime and parasitic lifestyles, while completely overlooking the fact that he himself did the exact same thing by terrorizing people in the name of his own agenda.His assessment was ultimately correct, though (we're seeing it now), but his approach reckless and ineffective because of how retardedly arbitrary his standards were, and it's cohersive nature that doesn't allow for middle grounds or a natural transition from order to order.
LLMtards are worse than cryptobros.
>>108019759how can someone look so comically evil and be irl villain? It's like evil people are ugly in real life too.
>>108021034Yeah, it's weird how terrorists pretty much never hit effective targets. It's not just schizos like Kaczynski either, Osama bin Laden based his entire strategy around it, and he was the leader of thousands of militants ready to die for him.
>>108021122It's the palantir pedigree.
>>108019759What's a freedom celibate? I think "freetard" fits better in this meme, no?t. freetard
