Agreed, I realize that. Just another bad idea I’m glad I worked out.

Agreed, just thinking out loud, quite stupidly haha.

What if we could give each citizen a crypto-signed coin at citizenship registry through citizenship tests or birth, it was required to be destroyed at death, and kept in line with an accurate population census?

Or do I just not understand crypto? Would they just be able to be hacked later as our algorithms improved? Or will the seemingly farther and farther invention of quantum computers (just like anything else that isn’t directly related to AI) be too much of a risk to rely on technology at all?

Idk man I just wish we could come up with some fair way to solve SOME things where the billionaire “meek” inherit the earth by delving into their bunkers and launching nukes… and I can’t seem to come up with any ideas. I’m tired.

I relate, you make me want to spill my guts out to you. So I shall try to dm you

But yeah, we’re going to have to pay the piper.

I agree almost completely. I just don’t want to give in to the will of the boards of directors that do their best to maximize the disinformation to maximize their short term profits.

There’s got to be more value to civilization than that, right? Things are real and truth has value even if meaning doesn’t matter.

I guess I just like to dream about what we could be, but it’s not getting any easier to believe in it.

Yes to all but the last sentence. We live and act, how can we use that best for the rest of us? Smarts have nothing to do with it.

Unusual maybe, but I wish it wasn’t so easy to accept it as just another part of history. I hoped we were better than this with all the new tech, but I guess old habits die hard. The new tech just seems to be a new tool they’ve been getting the hang of, and AI makes the dumbest sound less dumb to the ridiculously ignorant by choice. By so many choices I can’t fathom.
