Idiocracy is explicit eugenicist propaganda. Like that's the movie. That's both what the text of the movie says and the popular reception of the movie. If you want to defend eugenics as not fashy then go ahead.

I volunteer a lot so sometimes I meet people who have lost jobs and I met this guy who lost his job at google and he used to work for the google glass division and then he started working in their AI division. After he got fired his girlfriend dumped him. One time when we were volunteering he told me that deer kept eating all the plants in his garden and I told him to get a goose because it would scare away all the deer. He got a goose egg and he got it to imprint on him and now the goose literally just follows him around his yard and it attacks his neighbors and the other day he told me that the goose scared away a date by flying into her and biting her face. I ruined this nerd's life with a goose. Computers should be illegal. Thanks for listening.


LuxuryLarva posted:

Even though I lowkey dislike the tech industry and think that tech workers have ruined my hometown by making everything too expensive I can see his humanity and will never tell him how I feel. He seems super sad on most days and has told me multiple times that even though he's been successful financially he's never really accomplished anything at work - that google got rid of every project he ever worked on - that his girlfriend only liked him because he had money. It seems like it's the only living thing that actually loves him even though it attacks the deliveryman and it leaves huge corklike turds all over his car's windshield that he has to pick out with his hands because he says they smear when he uses the wipers.

Just saw this but between these and your recent succ zone post, you are an amazing person.

If anyone ever wonders "why are tech people like this" it's tempting to say that it's because of an ideology but the real reason is because they're all taking amphetamines almost all the time. The ideology often comes after the speed. I have a friend who works at google and once or twice a year she calls me late at night because she took too much medication and she incoherently babbles at me until I hang up.

I think it's a feedback cycle for sure, yeah. It's passive and active ideology which then feeds into the above, and similar things. That of course feeds back into the ideological stupidity.

A trend I've noticed a lot of in maybe the last five to ten years or so is tech companies releasing purposefully inferior products, pricing them above equivalent products that do substantially more, and doing this all under the rationale of wellness. It's fascinating, but I guess not all that surprising since :capitalism:. The above products are respectively $350 for a keyboard with a lovely screen, $300 for something an app can do, and around $2,800 for something else an app can do.
