one way to understand all this is the world’s largest petrostate kneecapping its lowest cost competitors, potentially for years, all in the name of protecting the security of their region.

@interfluidity The way to understand this is that people generally have defaulted to not care, even if a problem can be solved, and out glorious leaders are no exception.
Funny, really. In germany, we had a racist asshole writing a book about germany giving itself up. Now, humanity is giving itself up, for real.

Thinking long term, a reset might be a good idea. There are harmful patterns ingrained on all of us, i am no exception.

@interfluidity
Maybe it is more likely the next iteration of intelligent life might grow up without those self-harming patterns?

We should aim to erase all marks of our existence, who knows which ones are the meme that transports the curse?
