In #technofeudalism and #antihumanism:
The narrative of #AI's “inevitability” is a tactic used by tech companies to discourage resistance and encourage compliance.
[…] When tech boosters want to demonise resistance, they invoke the luddites. By their telling, the luddites were primitive idiots, who smashed machines they were too stupid to understand. History though, tells a different story. As recounted by Brian Merchant’s sublime work Blood in the Machine, luddites were skilled artisans, fighting for their way of life against the “satanic mills” – textile sweatshops powered by child semi-slaves. Forbidden from unionising, luddites smashed machines as a protest tactic. And they did not lose to the inevitable march of progress. They lost to physical force. The government called in troops, and the luddites were either executed or shipped to penal colonies in Australia.

Mark O'Connell in the 4/20 #NYRB on varieties of #antihumanism kills it. For ex., on David Benatar's assertion that life is always so bad, we'd be better off dead: "For instance: 'How often does one feel neither too hot nor too cold, but exactly right?' As of this writing, I will grudgingly concede that the room I am sitting in is a little on the chilly side, but not to the extent that I'm ready to succumb to cosmic pessimism; I can always put on a sweater." (40, 42)

This piece glosses over the ethical problems of the ideas it presents, but they're hinted at. #transhumanism #longtermism #extinction #antihumanism
"The revolt against humanity is a real and significant phenomenon, even if it is “just” an idea and its predictions of a future without us never come true... It is a spiritual development of the first order, a new way of making sense of the nature and purpose of human existence."

Hello brave new mastodony world! I guess I'll introduce myself for posterity:
I'm a #polytheist #pagan and practicing #zen #buddhist #mexicayotl (a revived #religion based on the traditions of my ancestors in #mexico). I mostly talk about #theology, #history, #meditation, #art and #arttheory, #antihumanism and #posthumanism, #decolonialism, #transrights, #ancestorwork, and #monasticism among other things.
Hoping to get to know some folks here, as well as lure more people away from Twatter 👀
