POSIWID suggests that the purpose of the American tech industry is to create a system of global surveillance and control to facilitate eugenicist white supremacists enslaving humanity and creating a decadent global aristocracy that rules through violently enforced deprivation under totalitarian theocracy.

Notably, this outcome was repeatedly predicted for decades. This error provides stark evidence that LLMs and corporate algorithmic information control are fully-weaponized tools being wielded against society-at-large. The power structures that have yielded these conditions are an existential threat to liberty, democracy, and the future of humanity.

The only moral path for members of this community is to divest from the industry and align your lives against these power structures. Righting the hyperscale cultural atrocity of capitalist cybernetic domination will be a multi-generational struggle: the actions you take now matter.

A large chunk of this community is fully engaged in building up the industry. Engineers need paychecks and intellectual stimulation, they work on the problems set before them. High-level managers organize the overall flow, the engineers are just like cells in the body that go wherever the body directs them.

    So it's always a small top branch? Everyone else, the society is just a bunch of ants, following daily needs, sticks and carrots, herded like sheep by the Big Guys, so they can't do much at all?

    This is just the narrative They want you to believe, the most comfortable for all. But in reality there can't be wars if there are no soldiers.

    There are plenty of people who live miserably rather than take the option that will lead to others suffering. If you're unlucky enough not to be driven by fear or compassion away from such destructive behavior, it is a choice.
