@Stephen19718352 This is the logical conclusion of “"There is no such thing as society. There are individual men and women, and there are families." - Margaret Thatcher
Today, the promises of transhumanism and posthumanism are multiplying. These are ideological currents according to which, sooner or later, technology will eliminate all disease and pain, as well as aging and even death itself. Precisely because scientific progress is a supreme achievement of human intelligence, it must not be confused with a privilege reserved for millionaires seeking immortality, while entire peoples suffer from poverty and oppression. In the face of this mirage, which promotes the illusion of human beings perfected by cybernetics and biotechnology, Christian anthropology reminds us that a limitation is not a manufacturing defect, but rather the very condition of human grandeur. #ApostolicJourney #Peru #MagnificaHumanitas https://t.co/wOXDtgnSi5
@NilsLiesebach@hnshah Millineals were told in the aughts that an office job was the path towards a stable middle class life, then once I got in there in the 2010s and realized it was EXACTLY like Office Space, I got really depressed.
@Omnipupcolony@TannenbergBltz Americans lived experiences moved towards him much faster than they did for Goldwater/Reagan. The vast majority of people under 35 cannot afford $2500+ rent, $1500+ childcare per month per kids, plus all other expenses. There has to be redistribution of wealth from the top 1%.
How do you want to be remembered?
Short of a miracle, Trump will likely go down as the man who had the last opportunity to save America but chose not to.
@HormuzLetter Suprised he didn’t want to stay in the administration to see through his life long dream to bring mafia casinos and high rise condos back to the the coastline of Cuba.
@_ericblanc Holy shit a Lewis Powell reference. Before this election you would only hear his name mentioned by socialist intellectuals such as Noam Chomsky and Chris Hedges.
@MattWalshBlog "The conservatives are fools: They whine about the decay of traditional values, yet they enthusiastically support technological progress and economic growth." - Ted Kaczynski - Industrial Society and Its Future
@gmiller Elon came around to this view because biological humans are incapable of living on other planets. The only way to colonize the galaxy is to become transhumanist (half machine/half man). The idea is to create a real life version of Darth Vadar that can survive on other planets.
@existentialwhy@Empty_America If some of the engineers are Dems who cares. Musk, Altman, Zuck, etc set the agenda. Did you see who was at the White House AI summit last week?
@DiscussOrDivide@USA_Polling People want to be able to work 9-5 with a 100 iq and be able to afford a small home and 2-3 children in a suburb of a high end city and that isn’t possible in today’s economy
