I love the panopticon! Having no privacy is fine when corporations train your peers to do it!
What annoys me is that these people are always 1 step removed. Why would I not just create a "fake" social media page if not having social media is seen as an indication of crime?
Ultimately you just end up with a reactionary front, used for survival and perhaps a genuine person internally that you just don't show to anyone.
1984 is really outdated for it's time of release, once you start questioning the world. People were debating similar kind of shit with similar amount of depth thousands of years ago.
Until only recently I also literally had zero social media
Yeah, pretty much. Just wait until the brain implants become mandatory. It won't be 1984 but Brave New World. Imagine being hooked up to a satisfaction generator until you starve from not wanting to unleash yourself even for a second.
Arguably the porks are working towards it, if not that we have it already.
: “Sorry kiddo, not hiring, we’re all full here! In my all-seeing wisdom, having a job and a decent life is unbecoming of you. While me and my fellow elites are partying it up, why don’t you just be happy with your minimum wage job in the middle of nowhere, forever? Just live vicariously through us!”
No, what they'll do is reward you with satisfaction tokens when you're a good citizen and you can spend 1 token to run the satisfaction generator 1 second at a time. Your ability to feel satisfaction without the satisfaction generator will be removed.
It'd be A Deepness in the Sky time in a heartbeat if they could actually do it. A neurovirus that can be manipulated by MRI, which alters the reward system to turn people into obsessive faux-AI.
That would be a step up. Id have satisfaction generated.
I can't get no...satis faction. But I try, but I try, but I try try try try try try... Wasn't that song contemporary with Charlie Manson an MKultra?
1965, so a bit earlier. The Devo cover is sick tho
Devo kicks ass
I guess they've been doing AI stuff lately. They kicked ass. I guess AI is devolution as fuck, but you gotta have limits
That's lame
Hey my lack of social media use and my criminal activities have nothing to do with each other
That's a lawyer not a judge
Lawyers can just say whatever crap they want to say. They almost never have any real accountability.
