The issue is globalization and economic abuse by certain elites, not technology. While I don't personally think Trump is sincere given his history, people are voting for him because they want to end the trade policies that have been objectively hurting the country in order to enrich a certain small demographic.
Whoever wrote this article just pulled something out of their ass with enough trendy buzzwords and quotes to get readership.

Taiwan is better than China. China is awful.

You can replace "exploring other planets" with poor roadways, wealth inequality, or whatever else you would like.

I'm not sure that's the case. In the greater Seattle area, roads have deteriorated to the point where it can be difficult to spot road markings even as an experience driver, and it's not unheard of for the markings to be completely worn away. I'm not sure about the rest of the country, but roads are painfully underfunded here.

>If you're going to deliver enough lentivirus into an HIV patient to edit all the HIV out of their T-cells, you're going to provoke a massive immune response.
Not if the HIV infection has progressed to AIDS. Even with a regular HIV infection the immune response would be diminished.

You seem to have concurrency confused with parallelism. Concurrency just means working on another task before the prior one has completed. You're describing parallelism which is doing multiple tasks at the same time.

But why.
Children need to learn CS concepts in order to use a computer about the same amount they need to learn mechanical engineering in order to ride on the school bus.
