Is this about AI/tech? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] A404@lemmy.dbzer0.com [S] 4 points 4 months ago (3 children) Industrial society in general. Theres just too much pollution and too little resources continue to uphold the status quo. We are gonna need to downgrade to lower level of technology one way or another. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] cecinestpasunecommunication@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 child) 'Lower level' is of course the only option. Cleaner greener more conscious shit is impossible. Focusing our innovations on real shit instead of burning the world to get as deep into simulacra as we can? Crazy. Probably impossible. Physics says so. Dying is impossible.

But billionaires are also trying to use valid climate concerns for their own agendas, including things like banning the production of meat, swapping it for lab grown meat, controlling the population through sinister means, having a "daily carbon quota", so-called 15-minute cities which are all just ways of 1) getting rid of people and 2) controlling the remainder more. permalink fedilink source parent
