Reading that article was like sliding on the gleaming patch of ice towards manure pit.

At first he present us with the vision completely identical to old Soviet sci fi.

Then, as every succdem ever, he come this close to realising the gist of the issue with how he describe "bootleggers".

Next, at point #3 you can already see the also typical succdemy manure pit of "what lack of dialectical materialism does to mfer".

And finally at point #4 we arrive, also like every succdem ever, facefirst into the manure of praising capitalism and even genius of Elon Musk as paragon of homo oeconomicus holy shit lmao. I stopped reading at this point.

a16z is still holding bags from all the pay2earn crypto pyramid schemes they unironically invested in. I have no clue how tf they have any money or authority to speak about anything.

story as old as time.. technology can be used for good and for bad

unfortunately capitalists always find the worst ways to use the most powerful technology
