  • サマリー

    • How this should've been an essay
    • Is this even dystopia?
    • Boring mantra and cliches; and how they are the death of thought
    • The passing of fads vs art
    • Hedonistic "happiness"
    • Ignorance of what you might want
    • Biological manipulation
    • Side effects of technology
    • External vs Internal reasons for doing things
    • Chestertons fence
    • Scientific "arrogance"
    • The ego when it is asked to elaborate on a conviction
    • Disagreeability in thinkers
