The world's tech billionaires are starting to moderate their rhetoric on AI automation, but that doesn't mean it's all in good faith.

    What was your excuse before this administration?

      Every administration has been the same, and it’s all based on an illusion of democracy and a form of government we never got to vote on and have no way of overturning.

        There it is. Knew there’d be one.

        If you seriously think every administration is the same, I don’t know what to say. It’s not easy to communicate when someone is both deaf and blind.

          Of course they’re not exactly the same but they’re all working toward the same end goal of subjugating the masses instead of doing their bidding. The Republicans pretend to support traditional values and the Democrats pretend to support welfare but they both actually promote surveillance, war, big companies, environmental damage, subversion of nature, anti-human technologies, wealth extraction from the public, global government and so on.
