First, the internet has kept people indoors, destroying the once-sacred sense of community that kept people together. Community is extremely important for preventing social isolation and promoting a sense of unity among people. That is now slowly withering away as more people stay inside and fester. People rarely know their neighbors, or help out those who are in need. Before the time of instant gratification, people lived fuller, more content lives. They were more socially involved, and relationships were more meaningful. People may not have had much but they had each other, something far more valuable than the materialistic goods that we surround ourselves with. Second, social media has given rise to horrifying degeneracy and replaced meaningful culture with shallow vapidity (See Morgz and the Supreme brand.) Memes are a perfect example of the damage that has been done to society by social media. As real, tangible social ideas have fallen apart, meme culture arose as a surface-level attempt to compensate for the new societal void, but is about as effective as a Band-Aid on a gunshot wound. The truth is that the West is breaking down. People are depressed, suicidal, and doing drugs in insane numbers. We are unable to process the fast-paced overload of information from our TVs, computers, and smartphones. Of note is the proportion of information which is overtly negative and often conveys a sense of impending doom. The constant feeding of this information overwhelms us, making us turn to drugs, porn, etc. to help us cope. It also prompts people to adopt a sense of nihilism, further leading to more degeneracy and destruction of social norms, "Because why the fuck not?" Most of us do not care about the future or the world at large.
Every weekday, when I go to my high school, I see a generation that is shallow, self-centered and nihilistic, drifting along with no real purpose. I fear that Gen-Z will be the straw that broke the camel's back, bringing societal decay to the breaking point and ending this great civilization that we call the West. All of this can be traced back to the technology. It has possessed them, to the point where they know nothing but what exists on Instagram or Reddit. There are no real opinions, there are no real interactions. People are programmed to say what Anderson Cooper says, or to think what Ben Shapiro thinks. Friendships are nearly meaningless, having become little more than the real-life projections of interaction on social networks. Gen-Z has become a generation of nihilists, fakers, and degenerates.

I am also greatly concerned about technological advancement as it pertains to surveillance and tracking. There will be cameras on every street equipped with facial recognition technology, tiny drones that can fly into your home and record your every move, and robots monitoring every square inch of land. Even more frightening, scientists have recently created a primitive form of mind-reading that can roughly create images that test subjects are thinking about. If said technology is further developed (which it undoubtedly will be, what government could resist?), there will be no more privacy anywhere in the world. Everything that you think, say, and do will be known to somebody. Most likely, information gathered from these technologies will be used to persecute those who think differently, or who have negative attitudes towards government, etc. Orwellian would be an understatement for this shithole.
Tyler Ward
One more point that I would like to make is about the rise of automation. Tasks that were once commonly done by man are now done by computer-operated machines. As a direct result, we have chipped away at the strong and honest work ethic that once defined the West. People are lazy, dishonest and expectant of everything being done for them. We no longer want to reap the fruits of our labor, rather, we want someone or something else to pick the fruit and place it in our hands. I fear that the human race is becoming dumbed-down because of our reliance on modern devices. Why read a book and learn something when you can do a quick Google search and forget about it the next day? Why learn how to read a clock when you can just ask Alexa for the time? I think that it is now a strong possibility that the future of humans is much like the future created by H.G. Wells in Time Machine, depicting a race of moronic, naive people who have all of their needs provided for, but are weak and subject to predation.
Jaxon Stewart
The other side of automation is that of the economic replacement of working people. Every day, factories are adding robots that can do the job ten times faster and ten times more precise. Manufacturing workers will be hit hard at first, but the replacement will begin to progress up into the more knowledgeable disciplines as technology advances. We will soon be left with a society composed of a massive underclass of unemployed welfare recipients who are subjugated by a small, extremely wealthy class who owns all of the factories and robots within them. Life in such a society would be unimaginable, and may God help us all if we get there.
We’re fucked, guys.

This user. Too bad this thread will die because everyone is gonna TLDR. Basically all the things we complain of can be traced back to technology. No computers/ games = no incels. No mass electronic media = less lefty propaganda. No planes/ fast transportation= less Shitskin immigration. This isn't even the issue either, simply put, we aren't evolved enough to be doing half the shit we do that technology has allowed us to. We're all living unnaturally and many are miserable as a result.
Alexander Cooper
You're on the right track, but this is actually a misnomer. What's happening right now is already, nearly, full surveillance; however, what's presented to the masses is being heavily edited to misrepresent reality. For example, if you don't believe the president spends most of his time performing bodily functions, including fucking Melania, or spending time with his family: you aren't living in reality. It's important to not believe in the presentations people are creating around themselves, the Bible tells us that if you put your faith in man you will be disappointed. It is of Satan and I know not why these characterizations permeate so forcefully. If you're smart enough, you'll even begin to notice that "live" television, isn't actually live to begin with.
The people behind it burn in hell forever, so that ultimate question can rest here, but the answer is to not let the written word replace reality. It falls to each of us to maintain scope on our persons and ensure that we do not let irrational behaviors permeate.

Yep you're still much smarter than a literal genius and are able to argue against something you sincerely don't understand. No need to read or learn at all
It will be the tool of our ascension. If you can't see that, you are quite dim. Let me guess, OP - you don't even know how to program, aren't you? If not, you can't really comprehend the full power that is just step away. The "wealthy" wouldn't do shit, because ascension would require personal skill, it would be deeply personal task. You can't just buy it. But it surely would be the bottleneck, and certain peroid of chaos should be walked through. Not many would reach the end. But isn't that how each great reformation were? There are still apes and other primates in the world, even after human emerged.

If THATS a genius for you I dont wanna know what you call dumb fuck, you probably just look in the mirror
the autist only knew how numbers work, thats all. and despite having such a "high IQ" he was still a moron who couldn't figure out its the Kikes or how society works.
thats why he ended up as poorfag in the woods eating worms and now gets buttfucked by niggers.

You're right about his end result. Him imprisoned is not ideal. However your argument is that hes wrong in his views about technology and retarded in general. Unequivocally wrong

his views about technology and everything ARE retarded BECAUSE he didnt figure out its the Jews or how it all works and who is behind it. He had no fucking idea what was even going on and then just made up his own headcanon as he went insane.
because he was a mentally ill nutjob living in a small cuckshed in the woods, he couldn't hold down a real job. Its a somewhat sad story tho, the man got betrayed from day 1 by everyone and this continued through all his life, made him bitter and he lost focus.
Nolan Young

No actually, smartphones are a military device used for targetting people. They have already killed thousands of people and caused terrorist attacks.
if you had a better argument you'd just say it instead of beign abusive.

Incorrect, it is the tool of our incarceration in an artificial grid.

Actually no, the human brain is far superior and much better at everything, but they keep you dumb so you buy their consumer products.
Jason Adams

No, smartphones cannot. They are a threat to everyone and always were.
OP is absolutely right in his first two blocks of text, and likely on automation. The people that may come to rely on self-driving cars will forget how to operate a normal one, or do so very dangerously. Especially with people forsaken written media sources for search algorithms, they comprehensive picture of knowledge that a full and complete read of a book will give you is vastly superior, more well-rounded and certainly lasts longer, if not permanently in your mind compared to the glossing of ephemera on the first result of wikipedia. That, and the common perception is that the wikipedia or google search is ALWAYS right, even on absolute mysteries of science (which do exist), spirituality, meaning, faith, or anything personal or abstract. People surely do think their lives are meaningless, because they base it on their social media, which they've seen rise, go bankrupt, and change right before their very eyes.
Its all military technology poorly managed and a lot of it should not be used by civilians.

wisdom? doesnt militarise the public nor does it track children nor does it mindcontrol nor does it result in the deaths of thousands of people, sorry.

There is nothing artificial. If you look close enough, current systems are result of natural pressures (often biological). They emerge because of the same rules as older ones. Resolving this for yourself would be needed to step over the barrier.

artificial intelligence is artificial clearly. the chemcials used in the phones are also artificial. the doping of the chip and the lithium batteries are toxic. the internet is a military device. smartphones are a military device. two lethal weapons in the palm of your hand.

because it lacks the glands in the brain. it is 100% fake and based on human left brain intelligence. they harvest dumb people's thoughts and make artificial intelligence out of it.
