ITT actual dangerous opinions
| Advances in lethal AI will soon make it possible for a wealthy minority to enslave the masses with no possible threat of uprising, laws won't stop them because lobbyism/corruption/negligence. When we reach that point, there's no going back. Violent revolution is urgently needed to either prevent AI advancement or ideally to change social structure such that government will actually guard against that. In <50 years revolution will be impossible. Time is running out.
| Migratory flow of uneducated, uncivilized and fast-breeding peoples from developing countries to developed white (and later asian) countries with slow breeding population will destroy modern secular and technological society and will create new Dark Ages in the former West.
| Democracy and human rights won't last long. Sooner or later we'll realize the fact that humans are just stupid animals and don't need political freedoms to consume videos on the internet. What we truly need is the meaning in our lives. Hope. And not everyone can find hope in this rotten world on their own.
| in developed world socialist/communist revolution would never happen because of mass indoctrination by the ruling class and extreme individualism that is prevelent since Renaissance
| Artificial Intelligence will never reach the levels of sapience as seen in fiction, both because we refuse to understand how human brains, much less neural networks, actually work, and because the powers that be would never want to create something that could eventually overtake them. Space travel, on the other hand, will become the dominant technological industry in the wake of people like Elon Musk making use of the most powerful motivator in all human civilization: Profit.
| Transhumanism is a religion that requires as much faith as other religions to become an adherent of, and any interesting philosophical questions or spiritual/intellectual purpose it may have served has been polluted by so called "intellectuals" who are really just bigots trying to sell you something. Anyone who doesn't recognize these organizations for what they are also bigots, and the majority of their adherents aren't people of knowledge or actual believers, just burned
| out secularists hopping on the next bandwagon.
| Traps are NOT gay
| On that note, another largely dangerous opinion in 2018: The louder a scientist/engineer is, the more likely they don't belong in their field of study. When you interview for Wired, Popular Science, and other such "sciency" rags and your answers to critical questions such as "what about the capacity for this technology to be abused to control a populace through memory" (an interview with a group that claims they found a way to selectively delete memory) with an emotional response
| along the lines of "I don't care/the ends justifies the means/that will never happen/i'll be doing it anyway/it doesn't matter," then you know you aren't really a scientist, you're just some asshole.
| Regardless of what industry you're in, anyone who does what they want without regard for the consequences that their miyopic understanding of their fields causes to the world around them is well and truly a complete fucking idiot and asshole who needs to be beat the fuck out.
| Oh, by the way, no, you don't fucking love science, you shit, you like exotic animals you'll never see because your fat ass is spent on facebook, youtube, and other such ad revenue mind traps and at the end of the day anytime you ever see anyone who's escaped said trap and is living the dream that you want, you either daydream to yourself, "gee, I wish I could be that, but I don't know where to start," or "that fucking asshole, I wish I had that job, they don't deserve it."
| Sound hypocritical? That's because it is, but that doesn't make it any more true, and that's one of the reason why people will never get anywhere in life. Spend all your time daydreaming and wandering and going "oh i wish i could be an artist, oh i wish i could be a writer, oh i wish i could be a scientist, politician, athlete, religious leader," and you'll never get anywhere.
You'll wake up and you'll be forty five and you'll wonder where the time went.
| And then you'll pop on your iPhone 30Xtra Large and rage at some commies on facebook before popping downstairs to your make-work job on the latest laptop tablet bullshit and then you'll watch the news on youtube and complain about how broken the government is, despite not voting in the most recent election.
| You will never realize that at the end of the day, the grand majority of your ills and disappointment comes entirely from you. Society may have produced vultures but you don't need to be their prey if you actually gave a shit.
But you don't, do you?
Time to wake up and smell the ashes, asshole.
| World population growth at exponential growth speeds is starting to show it is a problem and will be an always increasing problem. Partly because the faster growth areas are also the poorest and not only resources of the planet are finite, but also because the growth in intensity of the flow from higher to lower population density areas. This would translate to less personal spaces which is demonstrably the root of most social frictions.
Buckle up. Bumpy road ahead.
| Wall of texts are there for you to skip
| >>174897 thanks for proving my point. No one replied to the wall of texts while my low effort bait got instantly 2 replies, if I have short attention span, so do you and everyone in this board.
| Mental illness is a soft word for being a gigantic faggot.
| >>174914 You do not have any point. You mostly mind masturbate by admittingly letting out what you call baits and then feeling a prophet when people respond and point out your sense of fun of a 10 year old. You must be fun at parties.
| Baited and then angery burg
