They talk about “the left” as though there’s any kind of leadership or organization or solidarity.
Motherfucker, people just don’t like you, all on their own, because of who you are.
People can not actually grasp so many people existing. We were never meant to live in such large societies, historically, we only had a tribe that consists of maximum ~150 people.
It has been scientifically proven that we can’t hold effective social relations to a larger number of people. The exact limit is not clear afaik, but what this essentially means, in a community of millions, we abstract away groups of people into “the left”, “the bourgeoisie”, “the poor” which allows our brain to form social relations to these groups of people with the limited capacity it has, essentially treating each group as a single person.
Now of course, this abstraction is entirely inadequate, as each collection of people is always much more diverse than the abstract concept we use to replace them, and they aren’t really single individuals, they don’t act with a collective mind.
But most people do not understand this. They just work with these abstractions, these groups of people, as if they were real single people, because in some manner, it does work. If the abstraction actually groups correctly, then the ability to reason like this works decently well. But everyone is always wrong about these abstractions. They are always too general. They always fail to consider that there’s not a single mind at work.
It’s such an easy mistake to make. I see smarter people than Musk do it all the time. The enemy, like always, is missing knowledge, missing humility, missing self-awareness, unreasonable confidence, fear of the unknown/being wrong. All of which Musk falls into.
I don’t see any solution but to educate about this whenever possible. To speak to people about it. To raise the education about stuff like this wherever, whenever we can. I’m trying to do my part.
Good ted talk, but it could be boiled down to how many millions is a billion to blow most people’s minds. And even if you know it’s a 1000 million, our minds just can’t grasp that.
Things can always be boiled down. But the more you boil it down, the more previous knowledge you assume people have in common, and it might happen that they don’t understand because they didn’t have knowledge you assume they had.
Conversely, if you include too much information, not boil it down enough, you lose people by being bored of getting told things they already know.
In any case, it’s not an easy balance and I’m just doing my best here to guess which amount of “boiling down” is “just right”. But thanks for your comment, I’ll take it into consideration.
Says the one actually doing a whole nazi salute, buying presidency despite not being able to hold office due to nationality, carving up entire programs and departments in a very incompetent way, and attempting to shamelessly buy a seat in the supreme court.
And that’s not mentioning how I personally believe he may be doing all this due to his God-Iron-Man-Savior complex which makes him believe he’ll be remembered as a modern messiah. Notice how he’s revived his desire to put mankind on Mars, and by next year no less. He knows under current laws he’d at best help pave the way to Mars, but not live to enjoy it himself. “Maybe if I change the whole rulebook - in the end despite the suffering they’ll thank and revere me”, I bet.
Poor Elon. I bet he’s crying right now for being a misjudged angel, drying his tears in green paper.
He is named Elon after a character in a novel by Wernher von Braun. The boy had no chance.
How was Errol Musk aware of the book (in 1970 something) if it was unpublished until 2006 ? (According to the wiki link below) ?
Were they doing nazi catch ups with Von Braun in the 60s or something ?
Fake Nazi stuff.
So the inauguration Hitler salute was AI generated or what?
And by “push negative propaganda”, you mean use direct quotes and actual video of you.
Fake nazi stuff?
