Why do all futurist technology ideas sound destructive and dystopian?
Anonymous at Thu, 3 Apr 2025 09:16:13 UTC No. 16635838
Because they usually are. They're promoted by would be despots.

Because civilization always tends to devolve towards tyranny.

2 reasons:
1) The more destructive and dystopian it sounds, the more you pay attention to it.
2) Because your knee-jerk responses didn't evolve to make good decisions for shaping the far future. Your instincts that make future technology sound disgusting are just a holdover from the ancestral environment.

Every schizo on this board will confirm it's obvious that we are a civilization far beyond the comic. We have purposely forgotten that we are god-like so we can go on adventures by letting ourselves be born in a random body, a random place and a random time with limited abilities.

Because only right now and in the future will we always have a way to destroy civilization and humanity with nuclear weapons, and even more terrifying weapons humanity will develop in the future that will be even worse than nuclear weapons

Nuclear holocaust NGH. Satan wants more souls for hell. He's probably thrilled with the modern population boom and reads Anatoly Karlin on massive population projections

Honestly humans aren't very smart in general. The angels are smarter. We are "sheep" indeed. The evil is the problem desu
