...divorced from the grinding reality of regular folks.
What's the grinding reality of regular folks? I worked two jobs for years to put myself through college, got a job as an electrical engineer / firmware engineer (I've moved around a lot, working for some stable and some startup companies). I own a house and two cars, and work ~8 hours a day. Am I regular folk? Is my reality "grinding"?
I was able to buy a few shares of SPCX in the IPO, just for the hell of it. Now, as business builds, and Elon gets ever richer, so will I (a little). And, this is despite the fact that, YES, I AM regular folk.

autonomous killing robots are a bad idea because there is nothing to stop them from killing you next.
killing indiscriminately is a war crime. just because the russians do plenty o war crimes does not make it ok for the other side to do them.

should the russians be nuked? survey says probably not. rules of war are like the prime directive. mostly people have to follow it to remain civilized.

They hate government meddling when they don't control government. Just like they hate government spending when they don't get to choose where the money is spent.
Correct on both counts. This is known as the concept of Government by the people. Obviously, it's a concept lost in today's world, but it's a worthy principle to work back toward.
