Sorry trump. I know you tried. Don't try harder.

Look, if you start out the conversation with "I'm not a nazi or anything" and then handwave away concerns about how what you want to do could be used for horrifying purposes, don't be surprised if people become even more focused on the stuff you tried to handwave away.

I don’t really get where you going - you’ve sent a lump of comments about some “widespread burnout” - I know there is a lot of stuff that’s broken in the world, but you are not giving details to what exactly you are talking about.

Dude, if you read the post the thread's about and don't sympathize, consider that it might be like how you assumed everyone owns a washing machine.

Absolutely not. He'll tear himself to pieces trying to figure out who was disloyal to him.

Are you ok?

No. I don't accept that widespread burnout is anything more than a sign of a profoundly sick society in which the only future anyone is working towards is just more and greater exploitation. I don't see that changing for the better, ever.

It’s actually absurd to me that you’re able to read that out of my comment.

I know. You can't figure out why I'm not as cavalier as you are about something that will absolutely be misused. People are already so hateful of neurodiversity that they're willing to risk everyone's health because charlatans have convinced them that the MMR vaccine will cause their children to be autistic. Except there's actual science behind sexual preference being genetic. You think that bigots aren't going to try to edit the gay away? Or edit the gays away? And we've seen with vaccines in this administration that these assholes are happy to try to give their backwards garbage the force of law.

The amount of people who are blaming the poor for burnout in this thread is unsurprising, since this is lemmy.

Nope. We just need to have even less time to do anything, don't you know that rich people can afford to hire servants? Therefore everyone can and the poor are just lazy.

No, no! Everyone can afford what you've always had. They're clearly just too lazy, unlike the perfect billionaires you'll never have an unkind word for.

We should make it even worse and then deny it was ever better than it is right now!
