This is nonsense though.

Why do you think religion existed en large mass? It was a means for self-control.

In a world where you have OF, lots of soft-porn content, content designed to get reactions etc which billions of people are exposed to to - do you not realise humans are implicitly stating there is a price for everything?

That’s essentially what America figured out whilst Europe and the rest have tried to remain ‘true to values’.

More technology does bring more progress in the long-run.

Control of technology is a key issue. Social media wouldn’t be allowed to exist the way it does if govt’s regulated the internet much earlier. Are you happy with the trade off…?

Yawn who cares.

Most people just wanna enjoy life and then die.

Very few actually get to a position of influence and power to actually do anything. Much of economic activity isn’t critical to life and death - it’s just stuff we have to make life more interesting than past generations.
