    No it’s not inevitable.

    I actually have a pretty good plan for fixing rhe entire planet. It’s just when I say something like that it’s obviously perceived as arrogant (and I don’t argue it isn’t) and then the following conversation becomes some dick measuring contest instead of someone actually wanting to help me.

    It’s not inevitable, like driving into a tree isn’t inevitable, but only if the drivers at least attempt to drive.

      There are 8.1 billion drivers at the wheel and most of them will fight you tooth and nail for any course change that will even mildly inconvenience them.

        That’s sort of exactly the issue that need solving.

        But if you truly understand what is being said and aren’t taking anything personally, or making it a dick measuring contest of some sort, then agreement isn’t just possible, it’s probable.

        Ie actual empathy without ego.

        If only there were medications to help us experience empathy.

        Oh wait

        But no, no blockchains.

        I mean it’s a useful tech Finnish govt actually used it to give refugees faster access to services as it is safe enough to use as temp id before the get permanent official id.
