Physics teaches us that big things are mostly predetermined but small things are chaotic. The motion of a planet through the cosmos is pretty much inevitable, but a single electron could be anywhere in the probability field of its atom.
Psychology is pretty much the same. Behaviours of populations tend towards the mean as the size increases. The course of a nation can be swayed by propaganda, and it is pretty much inevitable. But small things are chaotic. You and I have choices in our lives that have taken us to where we stand now. We can decide our futures.
And we can steer nations by our actions. One day a quantum probability in Earth’s primordial soup created a strand of RNA that would one day change the composition of the whole atmosphere and send robots to Mars. One day the children of that little RNA strand might turn the whole solar system on its course. We can make important choices that change the world. A shitpost on 4chan can elect a president.
You’ve got the power. And Donald Trump is the one who wants you to be uneducated, afraid of knowledge, convinced that you don’t matter.
Is this an answer from an LLM or something? I’m confused.
Also saying things like that implies that everyone having shit lives are in their situation by choice. It’s typically something that only people with nice lives say, because they want to delude themselves into thinking that they deserve it, and that people with shit lives deserve it too; it’s obviously easier than to admit that you are lucky and privileged and that the world is an unfair place filled with undeserved suffering.
Bruh, did you not see the part where I said I was homeless? I’m unemployed due to AI, estranged from parents due to being trans, living on government benefits in shared accommodation, and My partner lives in the USA where Trump is president and wants to send trans people to concentration camps. You want to say I’m lucky and privileged and have a great life and no idea about the world’s unfairness?
But education? There’s free education on your phone. I know you have an internet device; you’re shitposting on Lemmy. And there are free computers you can use at the library in most of the English speaking world. Education isn’t like a house or a job or food or parents anymore. If you know how to read and you have an internet device, you can learn anything.
