    I’m sorry. (from a gX)

    I’m not typical. I was one of the nerds even the nerds bullied on, and this was the hey-day of the jocks and nerds paradigm.

    When George W. Bush started torturing, I thought that’s not the America I was raised to believe in and opened some books (on moral philosophy and history) and started my journey to becoming a raging far-left communist.

    By the time we were learning about years-long crunching in video games development, I realized that our capitalists can’t even follow their own rules. Id est, the facts were not informing the hypothesis.

    Nowadays, I see the species as primitive hominids who bomb other countries and strip away civil rights based on feels and vibes, or in other words, can’t follow rational instruction when we have the power to choose to not, and this is likely going to kill us.

    Maybe some other animal can evolve complex social relationships and do better, or be less susceptible to selfish interests of a few subverting the community of many.

    Yes, I’m bitter.
