Are we realising that AI is basically going to be unuseable. If it gets too smart we can't control it, therefore it's worthless?

And it's been pushed so hard across social media. My facebook feed has been endless 'suggested posts' by manosphere bloggers "explaining the truth" about Lindsay Clancy. Forces at play.

Yes! Until you become someone who *needs* a bench (for me this was having kids), you don't see how the world excludes, denies, blocks access, with stairs, high curbs, no benches. Capitalist landscaping that intentionally welcomes the strongest members of society and excludes the rest.

it is devastating to notice how few benches there are in the world and how some benches have been replaced by weird "leaning" things. the world is incredibly cruel to disabled, elderly, poor, pregnant, tired, homeless, and all people. there should be benches fucking everywhere for everyone

This says so much about the right wing mindset. Look away from the mess you've made, deny it, pretend it isn't happening. The intoxicating promise of trump and farage is that climate change isn't real, there is no cost to our lifestyle. We can carry on like this forever and everything will be OK!
