@ebbot 2/2 management and administration, embracing the dimensions of conception, manufacture, and use). High schools have detailed instruction in industrial techniques and mechanics. As we foresaw in 1985, computers are being brought into the schools and colleges. Students will have to learn how to use computers, since these are now educational tools, aids to pedagogy. --Jaques Ellul, The Technological Bluff (1988) #technology #dystopia

Began a new writing project.
Not a series this time, a novel.In 2063, humanity lives stacked inside endless metroplexes while their minds escape into The Grid - a digital world where power can still be earned. When detective Ryan Garfield investigates a murder in the highest caste, he uncovers a system built on lies, control, and buried history.

Instead of removing the conditions that make people depressed, modern society gives them antidepressant drugs. In effect, antidepressants are a means of modifying an individual%27s internal state in such a way as to enable him to tolerate social conditions that he would otherwise find intolerable. --Ted Kaczynki, Technological Slavery (2010) #technology #dystopia

CW: nuclear war, hypothetical, film
Threads (1984), the entire film here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Vfd0pq-S0Ao
Trigger warning for everything! Everything! But too important, so it would be good if you managed to watch it.
When Ukraine was attacked, and that drone from Ukraine crashed in the city I lived in at the time, 1000 km away from Ukraine, in a NATO member mind you, I stocked up on iodine tablets and everything I needed to survive for a week in my teeny tiny storage space in the basement of my building. I was determined to survive the possible nuclear war against NATO states just like I was determined to survive COVID. As a child I had survived both a war, and a nuclear family, so I wasn't afraid of a nuclear war.
I watched Threads yesterday and realised surviving a nuclear war is way worse than not surviving it, and not only because of the disability, radiation, and nuclear winter, but also (and mostly) because of other humans, because of how the society falls apart! I am not afraid of a nuclear war (I have been through so much shit in my life I do not feel fear anymore) but if it happens, I hope I die quickly from the blast itself.

No social arrangements, whether laws, institutions, customs or ethical codes, can provide permanent protection against technology. History shows that all social arrangements are transitory; they all change or break down eventually. But technological advances are permanent within the context of a given civilization. --Ted Kaczynki, Technological Slavery (2010) #technology #dystopia

As a result of the computer, everything now is not flux but a network of information. Every human activity is now set within a network or an intersection of many networks that are combining and will finally become a global network, it is thought, which will be the agent and expression of all possible combinations of networks. --Jaques Ellul, The Technological Bluff (1988) #technology #dystopia

The interposing of the technical object between us and the world takes on another sense. Whether in the domestic, educational, medical, or commercial field, the value of consumption lies less in the actual cost of what we buy than in that of the progress of knowledge. We are moving into an economy based on the production and circulation of immaterial goods, that is, knowledge and information. --Jaques Ellul, The Technological Bluff (1988) #technology #dystopia

@ebbot 2/2 have always conceived of what we call culture within and on the basis of our material, social, everyday, concrete world. Technique is here, it is our environment. Can we abstract ourselves from it? That is our problem. --Jaques Ellul, The Technological Bluff (1988) #technology #dystopia

@ebbot 2/2 technique. Technique is not responsible? No, that is true%3B people alone are responsible. But look! People have put all their passion and hope and desire into the development of techniques and techniques alone. This is the result. And at all cost we must now try to hide the brutal reality and the link between this reality and technical growth. --Jaques Ellul, The Technological Bluff (1988) #technology #dystopia

In a given society, the more people talk about a value or virtue or collective project, the more this is a sign of its absence. They talk about it because the reality is the opposite. If there is much talk about liberty, it is because the people do not have it. The darker the reality, the brighter the speech. --Jaques Ellul, The Technological Bluff (1988) #technology #dystopia
