I don’t literally know that but I do literally know how to read.

“I’m going out on a limb here but I seem to remember...“

Offers no sources. Just rambling on a limb.

Throw in behind the back claims of fear mongering by the author, I know the type. Do they know that’s the author’s motivation? Note how rhetorically circular emotional positioning gets.

Thanks for assuming all of us aren’t paying attention and couldn’t possibly possess a legit view if you don’t.

Having achieved grad degrees in math, joined into debates of reality and consciousness at length with experts, and generally just existed in human culture for 40 years, I have a pretty good emotional sense of when an argument is just ego fluffing nonsense.

I am a recursive axiomatic system too and can pick from numerous conscious positions to build on. None of them have to be the one you’d start from. Or vetted in reality, since we’ll take rambling on limbs as enough to get into a debate about.

Which is my point ultimately, social media is just low effort social normalization to inaction. Let’s upvote this anecdote and not bother further.

If the effort isn’t going to be there to take it seriously, why bother with social media discourse and all the mechanical effort to babysit it? What a waste of time and precious resources to prop up millions of digital tribal spaces for low effort thought work.

Tech nerds build the most useless spaces for themselves to wank in.
