I have been contemplating similarly for a few months. Except with magnets. Then put them all over my fridge.

A box of nails

Right off the factory floor they are programmed to increase shareholder value. Some of them become accountants.

But we want to replace humans. Very much so.

Every human in the chain between supreme leader and murderbot army is a weak link.

I picture a little wooden catapult throwing ww2 pineapples but I know it’s an 8ga shotgun that fires rockets.

Yeah this is going to end well.

If you want to feel out the edges of the consensus here, see what gets removed.

Ok, on second thought that may be difficult.

Not a popular belief here on Lemmy. Can you try something that hits a little closer to home?

That is an accusation framed as an analysis.

If you have a specific complaint about a specific reply then reply there. Don’t just wave your hands.

I doubt that you think the issue here is capitulation or any of that other semantic folderole. I think you are simply dodging my point.

But that’s the foundation of every video game and action movie. We love that.

I doubt that.

The actual disagreeing opinion. Stated plainly.

I think that might be stress talking.

Everybody agrees that goodness and beauty matter. All of our stories and movies and ideologies say as much.

But when stressed. When security is at stake. And especially if nobody is watching. Yeah we can become selfish little rats.

My point is we go up and down like that. From human to rat and back again. Depending on our stress level.

You and most of the people here apparently.

Or there are dissenting opinions but they’re afraid to voice them.

Hmm. It’s a good point. But terms “military” and “necessary” have clear room for weasley wiggling. So any argument there would probably get semantic

Just say it.

Well we are on Lemmy so it’s sort of implied.

Come on, think independently. I dare you.
