> Right now, with their billions and trillions of dollars, they are trying to create a new world run by post-humans without ever having inquired about the opinions and preferences of the rest of humanity. They’re doing this without our consent, and they don’t really care one bit about what the rest of us have to say.

Man this shit makes me so sad for our future. The money train has left the station and I don’t know if enough good people have the will or ability to shut this destructive speed run down.

They're building their own little world, a parallel reality where owning submarine garages and yachts and island hideouts is appropriate; but helping the rest of humanity isn't.

I hope we — the People — realise this faster and decide we don't want to help them out. Divest from their properties, stop using their tools, and keep being nice to other humans. The rift isn't our design, we just have to do what we can. We may lack the ability but not the will.

Teach your kids right, folks. Let them aim for a firm kindness and honesty rather than monetary success.

The train has been running for centuries, it’s just that who is missing it has changed

Which do you lack, the will or ability to shut this destructive speed run down?

Ability. The resource barrier is too great.
