Insulting people just arriving from Twitter because they didn’t do it earlier is neither kind nor smart. Be welcoming.

@ramin_hal9001 @pluralistic This quote from Stephen Hawking is relevant in this context:

"Everyone can enjoy a life of luxurious leisure if the machine-produced wealth is shared, or most people can end up miserably poor if the machine-owners successfully lobby against wealth redistribution. So far, the trend seems to be toward the second option, with technology driving ever-increasing inequality."
