I'll take AI over unacknowledged, abused children. I'll take it over the tenuous line between people reluctantly accepting that I'm gay and those same people stoning or beating me to death for it.

I refuse to forget how the parasite leverages animal insecurity.

My meatbound pattern recognition suggested Golem XIV (Stanisław Lem) as the factor (naturally with incomplete information on the actual reasons) before even opening the link.

He should have named himself DEUS X after Norman Spinrad's 1992 sci-fi novel.

(Not to be confused with Deus Ex games)
