Could we stop pushing articles monetizing fear amd outrage on this community to the top and post about actual technology
Sounds like someone needs to make a community for that.
Otherwise, this is what technology is these days. And I’d say that staying blind to things like this is what got us into many messes.
I remember when tech news was mostly a press release pipeline. And when I see these comments, I see people who want press releases about new tech to play with.
Now duplicate posts. Those can fuck right off.
I have seena rise in techno absolutists complaining that anyone else is complaining about the dangers of tech lately. That they just want to go back to hearing about all the cool new things coming out and it really speaks to the people who just don't actually want to interact with the real world anymore and live in an illusionary optimism bubble. I get it. It's exhausting to be aware of all the negatives but it's the stuff that is real that needs to be recognized.
I support this idea.
None of this is consentual
