At first I figured they were deluding themselves into thinking it would achieve some kind of FALGSC without the GAY or COMMUNISM part. But I don’t really see that, they more just gloat about it doing away with artists and teachers and stuff.

Is their dream just getting to sit on a couch all day hooked up to a VR rig getting pumped full of slop AI porn?

      Perhaps that’s it: they are philosophically myopic. They don’t have a grand vision for the future because they live in a world of two-week project sprints, quarterly earnings reports, and maybe some doodad they preordered for Christmas.

      There’s no building a better world for their children, there’s at best near-term treats that distract from a collapse they can barely comprehend, let alone respond to.

      I think the game ends when the last billionaire or trillionaire has literally eaten the second - to -last one and starves to death; at least for humans. :-/
