The only thing that can fix it is the effects of believing in the wrong reality showing itself. If you believe that 1+1=3 and you try to do math with it, you will fail. The same thing needs to happen with any other discrepancy of reality and belief.

The problem of course is that the delay between cause/effect, or the indirectness, for many other things are too big for people to make the connection, as well as the unlimited amount of human mental biases allowing all kinds of manipulation. For that, I have no solution, apart from showing people how good of a life you can live if you fight against your own mental biases.

Please don’t post fake tweets. It’s not helping.

There are a lot of people that are against not having to work. All people that own capital, which is not only the super rich.

And many people without capital that are brainwashed by these kinds of people, also want it to be necessary.

There’s so much narrative around current society how AI is terrible for taking jobs away.

That’s the entire point! That’s good! We’re supposed to not need to do anything anymore with advancing technology.

The problem isn’t that technology takes jobs away, the problem is that the savings are converted into more profit for the ultra rich, while it should be converted into having to work less for everyone.

It helps no one to be depressed about it either. So if someone is feeling well adjusted while recognizing the unjustness and cruelty of society, wanting to change it, good for them.

I’d rather make the wrong choice than the scary choice.

Unrelated to the topic, but this mindset is exactly why far-right movements are getting so strong right now.

I just don’t hear any difference between ~200kbps VBR mp3 and flac. If you manage a large library, 10x smaller matters a lot, it’s faster to transfer, easier to share on the web, space still costs money.
