I honestly can't help but suspect malicious intent when it comes to how much ignorant some people are, you say something about surveillance apparatuses or the fact that we need to scale back production and you see accusations of luddite and primitivist. Like seriously how many GPUs do you need? World is drowning in e-waste. People seriously think saying a country people are sympathetic to is doing something will amount to something like come the fuck on, saying China is using ai(deepseek) in schools won't make it any better, China also has competitive exams and toxic education system so guess what blindly following what ONE country is doing doesn't prove anything even after ignoring the fact that China has only been trying controlled rollout but these fuckwit journalists and netizens have decided to spam the internet like China is switching its entire curriculum to promot engineering. Why I know all this don't ask because those are dark dark parts.
Hate it when people roll out the luddites accusation, especially marxists who should know better. There's no such thing as technology which can be separated from a social or political context.
Yeah. China is also ruled by a DotP and has a different economic/political structure. It had its own conditions, own policies and the CPC constantly emphasizes this. Copying China is dumb. What we need is to think for ourselves.
Really people take Marx's quote from chapter 5 of capital vol 1 "it took English proletariat 15 years to realise its enemy wasn't the machine but the bourgeoisie" and run with it, like have read anything else from him or his fellow theorists? Bourgeoisie are the enemy but so are their machines.
"The real threat is not the gun but the mf trynna shoot you with it. If you have a gun in your hand it's not a bad thing"
Certain smoothbrains: guns are not the problem we should let the enemy have all the guns they want.
"I'm just happy the technology exists. It has so much potential."
As if commodities were people and could choose - benevolently - their applications.
Exactly, literally that
