Grandpa’s definitions do not need to be our definitions.
People are playing some banal brinksmanship game “oooh that fall afoul of some vague mutable truth we’ve been conditioned to believe is immutable; get im fellas!”
What are you all going to do to STOP the problems? Debating the diagnosis is allowing it to spread. Only real change in agency will stop it and no one seems into that.
So why sit here thinking answering your questions is useful?
FYI it isn't a strawman to ask whether you have a cogent argument for why technofeudalism isn't happening.
You asserted the proposition that technofeudalism isn't a thing (strongly implied) The respondent didn't construct a superficially similar proposition (I.e. a strawman) and simply asked what support you have for your proposition.
A strawman would have been like if someone argued against your proposition that "But the Snowden leaks showed we live in a surveillance state!" This is a Strawman because it constructs a superficially similar position to "technofeudalism is a thing" without actually at all arguing against the position that technofeudalism is not a thing.
Light from one “edge” of the universe has yet to reach the edge directly across from
Same reason we need shifts in gravity to detect planets
Diffusion, attenuation of signal given all the other stuff are physical properties of the universe, they’re properties in us
The universe prefers tribalism; a quasar far off over there, neutron star far off over there.
There are a lot of meat suits who refuse to propagate the signal.
Doesn’t mean it won’t shine bright in some local part of space.
Even so, are we better off if people decide to stop driving, however misguided their reasons?
Is the future better of setting themselves aside to clean up after us? Are they not allowed to be free from our mess? One unique in the history of the species.
Why is today free from the consequences they put upon tomorrow?
The long term investment in us is actually selfish. It’s akin to expecting our religion to be the next generations
