Bill Gates says a 3-day work week where ‘machines can make all the food and stuff’ isn’t a bad idea::“A society where you only have to work three days a week, that’s probably OK,” Bill Gates said.

        No.

        Because I’m not under the self-important delusion that everything is part of a grand conspiracy out to get me.

          It doesn’t ever matter to you people how obvious it becomes over time. Like three years ago when a ridiculous number of people seemed to beleive the policies then wouldn’t result in the reality now, no matter how hard we tried to tell you.

            I have learned over the years that reasoned discussion is impossible at this point. You are firmly fixed on your opinions, and I am moderately fixed with mine, and the gulf in between is large.

            So I will simply bid you good day.

        People who believe in this insane shit shouldn’t be allowed to vote… in fact, should be in literal prisons, as they’re a danger to themselves and society.

          So, you don’t believe in voting as a human right, and you think prisons have ever solved even a single solitary thing in their entire history?

          Miss me with that lmao

          I didn’t name a conspiracy theory. I asked if you had pattern recognition. It would seem not.

          Cultural conservatives (including many leftists) believe that social liberals are a danger to themselves. That’s not a precedent that you want to start.

            Just for interesting learning, what leftist groups would you consider to be cultural conservatives?

              Tankies.

              Apologists for Lenin, Stalin, Mao, the CCP, the DPRK, and any other authoritarian genocidal cult that champions “collectivism” for the “people”.

              Analogous to the pigs in Animal Farm.

              I wouldn’t say that there’s any specific group.

              Anyone who votes conservative against their economic opinions would qualify.

      Walkable cities would be an absolute hellhole, but not for the reasons that conspiracy theorists are claiming. Packing everyone in densely enough to make everything walkable will be a hellhole.

      We need affordable options for transportation. Bad weather and the cold also require enclosed vehicles that can’t tip over.

        The term walkable includes public transportation. It’s a multiplier on what locations are considered accessible without owning a car. Common misconception.

        A lot of words to to express “I’m an American who doesn’t even have a passport.”

        Can’t even imagine a walkable city, and talking about it like it’s a far-off sci-fi concept, rather than a lot of peoples’ actual everyday life. Yikes.

        Have you ever heard of the concept of “cities”? Everything important is within walking distance in the capital of my country and if not there is great public transport.
