HN is full of propagandized technologists who have yet to realize how few of the world's problems are technical, and how approximately all of them are political.

I'm sure there are better essays with similar value, but the one that comes to mind is Heidegger's The Question Concerning Technology: https://www2.hawaii.edu/~freeman/courses/phil394/The%20Quest...

I disagree, I think most people here understand the problems are political they just not understand that the problem was CREATED by the politics, and instead believe the solution to the problem is political.

They refuse to believe that government thus politics is the problem, not the solution

I have seen your comments elsewhere on HN. It's refreshing to see some like-minded opinions. Do you have any other online presence or some way I might contact you? My email is in my profile here, if you're open to that.
