1) Mention of big cities and calling them claustrophobic? Most people prefer them .............. NOPE: outside the glitterati, drug-runners  and muggers most Americans hate them.

2) Killing an electical grid-point? ... YEP. Are you that simple-minded the difference between YOUR-gas and THEIR-electricity can't sink in?

3) EV has nothing in it that allows government control. Yes, people COULD add that in ... YEP: power-grubbing collectivists from Nefertiti to Mao /Pol-Pot grab for power at any opportunity..

4) The Repuiblican party is the one that has PROVEN they love control in this current administration. ... GRANTED, REpubliFats suck, but the option is child-raping/trannying narco-MEX invader pimping green-beaning pre-Enlightenment DemoRats.

5) My culture is full of Democracy an the Democratic party. We are Pro-Choice.....  JUST SAY IT. You  kill babies for fun. At least the Azteca/Carthaginians could blame bloodletting on the god(s).

You grant the collective  a' priori existence/agency on par with the individual. The "blood-family" excepted, no such intrinsic agency exists for the collective. Now, the collective tends to have a bigger gun-barrel than any individual ; that makes a difference. Multi-family collectives nominally form around warlords, like galaxies around black holes. Then - nominally - the warlord/shaman  usurps  power and performs those actions aggrandizing his/her power.  Road had been built -- family to family .. the warlord doubles their width and length. Pottery and knives and  bows had been crafted; the warlord now sets a vassal over their mass production. READ// --Against The Grain-- for insight. The choices were mostly there, actively,  before warlords/collectives ( think motorcycles wheeling over desert -- think outriggers sailing to new islands. ) snatched them away from founders. Does the collective SUFFER as individuals thrive?  Damn straight  ! Suffer bitches.

"...capitalism and free markets have always been about protectionalism (!?!?!?!?!) of corparate and national interests first and foremost." Another collectivist half-truth ( 1/2 = lie ).  Sure, neolithic villagers  tried protecting their barley-fields from ravaging antelope. What social system doesn't protect its national interest. I understand that in the "PARADISE" nation Adam ate 1/2 the apple so Eve would not get a tummy-ache. See this myth , then march forward. Nothing changes . Especially in post-Mao China. One Emperor gone, the throne is refilled . Good for them, but ol' USA should retain its steel-mills ... just like the Emperor ...

Does the government choose what transportation a person uses, or does the individual chose ? The CCP has chosen  EV/trains as the mode of civilian transportation. That decision matches their political agenda. In the USA individuals choose ( except those in claustrophobic  big-cities ) what/where/when/how they transport. Killing an electrical grid-point means nothing to the driver of a 1968 Tr-6  or Chevy Impala ... but  given EV would allow government to control entrance/exit to parts of an entire region. Collectivists/CCP lust after that control ; (re)publicans love individual agency.  What's in your culture ?

Naturally for making a reasonable , workable suggestion you get ZERO=0 karma from the collectivist scum that infests /.  The Trotsky-sluts KNOW  able coders need to be smart ... in the puzzle-solving / combinatorial sense, but progressives need LOTS of dumb , needy people to support power grabs posing as humanitarian help.

Ouch. You hit the nail on the head. But, you do realize that AI-advocates want to make LLMs the STANDARD of correctness. So any human-derived  solution to a problem that  deviates from the AI-solution is -- by definition -- just wrong. Financially HUGE AI-companies might convince dystopian governments that they (company) are "too big to fail" . Thus the gub'mnt  gun-barrel will defend LLM "truthfulness" while suppressing non-machine analysis.  Analogous to USA  bailouts of banks, cars and industrial agriculture.

"1) Choose fascism."  Choose Franco instead of Stalin: choose Mussolini instead of Mao: choose Pinochet instead of Pol Pot. No, you cannot accuse "cherry-picking", because collectivist klans/cultures ALWAYS end in horrific tyranny. Find your own examples, beside Jonestown and the Spanish Inquisition.

2) Produce useful items  , marry your sweetheart & raise a family. Spend years rebuilding a 1959 Plymouth Fury with Hurst 4-speed !  Live a life of Enlightenment culture and Western civilization. Prosper.

"... department with a lot of H-1Bs ..." Why does your department hire H1-Bs. Is it only because they are cheaper than citizens. Or do you have a deeper hate  against ... straight white male native  Christians ? Does the huge hiring of Indian C -suites directly imply that racism ?

Hope you gagged in the stopped traffic. Teach you to depend on  electrified intelligence that is indeed artificial. So get out and walk, to your grandfathers garage.

If all code is written by AI, then no metric can exist to define/qualify a (human)  "senior" developer. Perhaps the biggest/fastest LLM will retain that "developer" title.  One "positive" thought. Perhaps the entirety of digital memes is toxic to humans, and should be as isolated from their presence like radioactive waste, rabies virus or black Mamba venom.
