  1. @davidgerard you're the sort of hero social media needs, but only the #fediverse deserves.

    Two more chuds for the bot ban bin. The answer was anyone who affiliates with the #tescreal movement. Not complicated.

  2. This by Cal Newport is very good, though I wish it would cite work on #TESCREAL (Google it) & its eugenicist roots. *That* is how scary crazy the AI boys are. It's not the technology; it's the technologists.

  4. #TIL what #TESCREAL means. I'm impressed by the explanatory power of conceiving of this cluster of #ideologies as an #interconnected #aggregate which then get used to justify #harm

    I feel like a lightbulb went on and that I understand the current state we're all in a bit better now.

    Highly recommend starting with the @wikipedia article, which covers the #concept and some of the #criticism en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TESCREAL

    Thanks go to #Bhante #Sujato (sujato.me/) for making me aware of the term.

  5. Death is essential to evolution, hence a blessing. I make the claim that the only real cultural evolution of humankind happens with the growing up of new generation.

    Now imagine a Stalin that doesn’t die, thrusting humankind into an eternal Soviet Union, where the elite is immortal and never changes.

    Immortality would bring stagnation, and perhaps the death of the human race with it.
