      Have you read “The Culture”? Because handing over power to the AI Minds is how you get utopian hedonistic gay space socialism.

      Do you want utopian hedonistic gay space socialism?

      I fucking do.

        The gay is optional in The Culture (and sex changes at will), so yeah, I’m in.

        I always thought that the AI Minds were just his version of benevolent god slaves, in similar fashion the Superman is a bgs in the mainstream culture.

        I get most of what you’re saying…but what’s the space part? I like living on ground. I mean, I’m not opposed to a new planet. We could travel there. But I’d like to live on a planet.

          The ‘space’ part is just what happens in “The Culture” book series. They tend to stick to gigantic ships or space stations that have ecosystems, mountain ranges, and seas.

          Though really it’d be classified as more anarcho-socialism I suppose.

          I’m with you, Earth is better than we deserve and we should be focused on the problems we have here.

            we should be focused on the problems we have here.

            Such as restoring earths beauty. There is ZERO reason why something absurd like 40% of America is just…parking lots. Or abandoned warehouses. Or abandoned malls.

            This may surprise most people, but, this country is naturally beautiful! And it can be again!

            We just gotta kick this bad habit we’ve had for 200+ years of forced slavery, and profit chasing.

            Oh, and also, no more pedophile presidents.

              I think you might have a fever? Or dreamed that up.
