"Ethnic cleansing" is such a nice word. "Etničko čišćenje" is what the Serb paramilitaries called raping and murdering a population to make them leave. "Remove kebab" as the later meme culture would call it. It's so trite, and a little funny it seems. We should call it what it is: *genocide*; thereby robbing the perpetrators of any semblance of cleanliness or propriety.

Monsters are filthy. Let's call them the filthy monsters they are.

I agree!

No. Better technology is only making it more efficient. We need better humanity, better morals, better policing of criminals in power.

Captain Obvious? Is that you??

You don't know how lucky you are, boy...

ZX Spectrum?

That's hilarious, and very sweet.

Humans are, by nature, forgetful and argumentative. Fourteen hundred years ago, the Qur'an said this unequivocally (20:115, 18:54, 22:8, 18:73). Not to moralize here, I'm just saying if camel-herders could build a medieval superpower out of nothing, they knew something we don't.

Any state or system that insists good humans are always nice, smart, cogent, and/or aware is doomed to fail. A Washington or a Cincinnatus that can get out of his own way (and that of society) is rare indeed, a one-in-a-billion soul. We shouldn't sit around and wait for that, while your run-of-the-mill dictator in a funny hat (or a funny toupée for that one orange fellow) has his way with us.

Coming soon... YOU!

Maybe he does. Have you asked him?

Me too. Honestly I was vibing on nostalgia for this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynix_(software)

Imagine you ordered the new Claude Opus and instead you got Gemini telling you to glue the cheese on your pizza...
