Sorry to get political but schools should probably have books
@lolennui
Alarm bells should be ringing when one party wants to take books *out* of classrooms, but put cops and guns *in*

@TCatInReality Feels like any time someone is found to be a member of the guns-instead-of-books-in-classrooms party they should be escorted off the premises posthaste and told in no uncertain terms never to return.

weird take I know

@Almafeta
Yeah, as unpopular as my view that we'll have safer and smarter kids with more books and fewer guns (anywhere).

It would help too if they all had sufficient food and health care and their parents made a livable wage and had complete control over when to have them.

@TCatInReality @Almafeta
Haven’t you gotten the memo ?
The rich have robots, so human labor is an unnecessary expense.
They now have AI, so intelligence is becoming an unnecessary expense.
When the “Terminator” scenario happens, the only resistance will be rich, spoiled lazy people. But I doubt it will be a war….I am betting on more of a “Wally”.
@PJLavatai @Almafeta
Watch Love, Death + Robots for one possible outcome of that.
@TCatInReality @lolennui
I have found that the homes I visit (family, friends), have a preponderance of one of two things. One will have an actual library of books, the other will have an arsenal.
I do not revisit the latter.
@TCatInReality @lolennui Alarms? No... way too late for that... at this point you call the fire department (in other words you do something about it).
