if you think about it, it's the extreme conclusion of terminal individualism. "We" must work together, not to collectively take power to change things ourselves, but to support the technocrats to make the Greatest Man to save us from History.
Oh shit oh no. God doesn't exist and we are necessarily creating HIM.
They want their own Kwisatz Haderach.
I can't even come up with a good "sacrifice to Ba'al" joke because generally speaking Ba'al isn't actually causing the problem you're tryuing to fix. I guess they are trying to, idk, satiate Progress until it spits out Paradise for them. If we just feed enough children to Ba'al it will solve the feeding child to Ba'al problem?
We've reached a degree of madness I am struggling to satirize.
At least Whitney was actually trying to do something good. "If I invent a thing that ends slavery and does so without bloodshed" is a decent enough reason to invent a thing.
The techbro death cult is more like "If we create more slaves, the price of slaves will drop to zero due to supply vs. demand. Then we'll all own too many slaves, so we'll be forced to sell them off."
"That...that doesn't actually end slavery tho?"
"Just trust me bro we gotta make slave cloning machines bro it's the inevitable future."
