    Imagine not being American being a US’ian having critical and rational thinking skills and having to read about the American soap opera in your our technology community and everywhere else.

      To be fair, I remember this EXACT same conversation on reddit in 2010. Back when republicans were bashing Obama for being Obama, and Obama responded by wearing a suit in a mustard color brown that conservatives LOST THEIR SHIT OVER on twitter.

      I thought the suit looked spiffy!

      And now, nothing has changed. Replace one politician with another, manufacture more outrage over stories that don’t pertain to the rest of the world, and we all learn nothing.

      And pretty soon, we won’t NEED to learn anything! With the AI takeover at large, soon humanity will be nothing more than an easily controlled and manipulated mob, with no critical thinking skills to speak of, and all their thinking will be handled by the corporations with the sole purpose to create unregulated profits and nothing more.

      What could possibly go wrong?
