it’s the authentic will of the people when they seem to agree with me.
it’s the way the system is rigged when it appears that they do not.
(hint: there’s no such thing as the authentic will of the people independent of the system by which it is ascertained or constituted.)

@interfluidity Exactly the point why i am wondering if humanity failed as a general thing.
This much suffering without at least some authentic free will? Sounds like a bad fantasy from a utilitarian nightmare.
@interfluidity We are special as the propaganda didn't get to us 100%
We are defective because the instructions provided did not correctly reach us
@interfluidity If it's the latter, we might be in a simulation and should work to stop the nonsense. If an entity tries to cultivate artificial intelligence but just lets happen what happens instead of parenting, it's not mature enough to have ai.
@admitsWrongIfProven don’t worry, the simulation is only simulated, we needn’t take it so seriously.
@admitsWrongIfProven whatever it is, we are irredeemably within it and have little choice but to work our way through it.
