2024-08-10 at 3:39 PM UTC“Oh!” say the technophiles, “Science is going to fix all that! We will conquer famine, eliminate psychological suffering, make everybody healthy and happy!” Yeah, sure. That’s what they said 200 years ago. The Industrial Revolution was supposed to eliminate poverty, make everybody happy, etc. The actual result has been quite different. The technophiles are hopelessly naive (or self-deceiving) in their understanding of social problems. They are unaware of (or choose to ignore) the fact that when large changes, even seemingly beneficial ones, are introduced into a society, they lead to a long sequence of other changes, most of which are impossible to predict. The result is disruption of the society. So it is very probable that in their attempts to end poverty and disease, engineer docile, happy personalities and so forth, the technophiles will create social systems that are terribly troubled, even more so than the present once. For example, the scientists boast that they will end famine by creating new, genetically engineered food plants. But this will allow the human population to keep expanding indefinitely, and it is well known that crowding leads to increased stress and aggression. This is merely one example of the PREDICTABLE problems that will arise. We emphasize that, as past experience has shown, technical progress will lead to other new problems that CANNOT be predicted in advance. In fact, ever since the Industrial Revolution, technology has been creating new problems for society far more rapidly than it has been solving old ones. Thus it will take a long and difficult period of trial and error for the technophiles to work the bugs out of their Brave New World (if they every do). In the meantime there will be great suffering. So it is not at all clear that the survival of industrial society would involve less suffering than the breakdown of that society would. Technology has gotten the human race into a fix from which there is not likely to be any easy escape.

Originally posted by Obbe Conservatives’ efforts to decrease the amount of government regulation are of little benefit to the average man. For one thing, only a fraction of the regulations can be eliminated because most regulations are necessary. For another thing, most of the deregulation affects business rather than the average individual, so that its main effect is to take power from the government and give it to private corporations. What this means for the average man is that government interference in his life is replaced by interference from big corporations, which may be permitted, for example, to dump more chemicals that get into his water supply and give him cancer. The conservatives are just taking the average man for a sucker, exploiting his resentment of Big Government to promote the power of Big Business.
I support industry self regulation and I think government red tape is the cause of a lot of inefficient solutions like carbon capping. I think market solutions when done right will lead to ultimate green technology with 0 emission goals easily met but the current government control over markets is the primary cause for dirty industry having large subsidizing and such i.e Petrochemicals, farm subsidy for corn/cattle, Chinese national coal, russian energy etc I think all of those would go away in an entirely market controlled and regulated system as the planets ultimate health would be whats best for the market in the long term
The short term thinking of government kickbacks and lobbyists does not care if we die in 100 years as long as they get elected and their son can be a senator -

2024-08-10 at 7:28 PM UTCNobody's going to actually go after the actual polluters in the mega-corporations, because the mega-corporations are shoveling billions of dollars into the pockets of the very same politicians who are using climate as a smokescreen to rob the middle class and put the poor into their graves. It's a clown show, folks. A literal clown show.

These scumbag parasites have been sitting on free energy for decades, but there's no money in free energy. Meanwhile, the fools chew their cuds and pontify on fairy tales and boring bed time stories, trying to come off as the heroes of the story. -

You have swallowed the marxist lies without even chewing. -

2024-08-11 at 1:46 PM UTCTo those who think that all this sounds like science fiction, we point out that yesterday’s science fiction is today’s fact. The Industrial Revolution has radically altered man’s environment and way of life, and it is only to be expected that as technology is increasingly applied to the human body and mind, man himself will be altered as radically as his environment and way of life have been.

So in 100 years the climate change fiction will finally start to happen? -
