How many you have actually read Mary Shelley closely enough to realize that Victor Frankenstein was the villain of the piece?

How many of you have read Michael Young closely enough to understand that "meritocracy" does not mean what you think it means?

How many of you read Snow Crash closely enough to understand that the metaverse only exists because capitalists ruined the real world for everybody?

You lot are the reason we even have the "don't build the torment nexus!" meme. After the collapse, the survivors might ask, "Who killed the world?"

The answer? It's you. All of you. The greatest act of loving-kindness or effective altruism you could offer the world would be to turn off your computers and never, ever write another line of code again.

Because none of you know how to read. I blame your parents. And the public schools.
