Yes, I think that human imagination is bad. you got me
The kind of reading where you focus your attention for a long time on texts and thoughts.
no, this comment did not get removed. only top level ones, only unpopular ones
okay I didn’t know that about piefed. I suppose the other guys who got removed were on piefed too.
but it’s suspiciously only top level comments that got removed. and only spicey unpopular ones.
but yes, stranger coincidences have happened. I will abridge statement.
Yes, reading has good things about it and also bad things about it. That’s something that happens sometimes.
And yes, my opinion differs from the popular one, not to mention 100 years of pro-reading propaganda. That is also something that happens sometimes. sometimes people have ideas that conflict with the ideas of everyone else. if they make a bunch of money we call them geniuses, if they don’t then we call them crazy.
yes. and there are half a dozen others by other people too.
It’s a variant of the domination urge, I think. Getting offended turns the whole of culture into a gun in your hand. Then you shoot your opponent. Then you win.
the moderator removed my reply. do you believe that shit?
Not if it’s subtle and common. People generally only notice the obvious.
I think that reading is unhealthy. The act of focusing your attention upon text and thoughts like that, for hours. It’s like a mind-altering drug. No, I’m not talking about the knowledge gained. Just the “psychic act” of it. It’s good too, but it’s also unhealthy.
Like the Romans used to drink from lead cups. Something like that.
(it appears that the moderator is removing any replies with which he disagrees. It might be a piefed issue. But all the removed replies are top level and upopular. Stranger coincidences have happened I suppose.)
Piracy is always justifiable. Get it. Get the whole dang season.
I think it’s the default style. The style formed when you merge all styles on earth. And most people don’t care enough/feel confident enough/know enough to tell the AI to do it different.
Yes. I prefer a cashier. I like it better. I like having an expert do it. I like baggers too. Same with hardware stores. All stores.

Do you ever think about the limits of science?
Definitely. The affects of advertising sticks for generations. Nazi is basically a very successful advertising campaign for motivating traumatized Germans. The “Just Say No” campaign created an entire generation with an irrational hatred of drugs. I still remember with perfect clarity tv advertising slogans from when I was a kid. We are basically dropping atomic meme-bombs on ourselves.
