I can’t look at it now but will make it a point to do that tomorrow. This makes me really worry about “you will own nothing and be happy “. This really is the plan and I don’t like it

The synopsis: a technocratic hellscape run by an AI super computer, no meat, no cars (unless you're rich!), your kids get their jobs selected for them, if you don't like it, you get to live in the "Cry Freedom Ghetto". It's sick.

Oh my god now you've got me started.

When I lived in Dubai, I was dealing with an audio-visual manufacturer. I was warned that the CEO had a habit of saying "Yup yup yup" all the time. Sure enough, it was true.

Then I started saying it all the time as a joke, then realized I was doing it subconsciously.

Yup yup yup is a virus. Don't start.

People are not productive under totalitarianism. Zero innovation or motivation is bad for the entire world. The elites are gonna lose in the long run!

And the computer gives you a calorie ration! It would be really hard to believe this isn't satire if we hadn't lived through the last 2-1/2 years.
