Is anyone else sick of living in a reality which is nothing but all the #dystopian #fiction from 50 years ago?

We have #JamesBond villains ( #Musk )
We have #InvasionoftheBodySnatchers zombification ( #MAGA )
Etc, etc.
And now we have #Wargames:
" #AI s can’t stop recommending #nuclear strikes in #war game #simulations
Leading AIs from #OpenAI, #Anthropic and #Google opted to use #nuclearweapons in simulated war games in 95 per cent of cases"
I do regularly say "I don't want to live in this world any more".
Between utter failure to make progress on stopping global warming, to the rich pushing fascism on the rest of us, so they can avoid the consequences of global warming, it feels like everything is going to keep getting worse for hundreds of years.

@benroyce exactly why tech isn't fun at all any more to me. Really peaked in 2012.
Linux adoption is about the only new thing to be excited about tech wise.

my attitude is to go down fighting
if you're surrounded by 20 goons, you can feel hopeless
or you can go out swinging with a stupid grin on your face
that's my approach
"rage rage against the dying of the light" and all that
anyone who just curls up in a ball and accepts defeat?
this is not the real left
all there is, and ever was, in this world, is the good fight
you fight, you may lose
you may also win
if you give up you will lose
there are no better terms in this world
