If it’s inaccessible to the poor then it’s neither radical nor revolutionary

💯 and why right-wing slogans like MAGA and Brexit's 'take back control' point to the past - it doesn't require them to actually create a future vision. and also why art, music and joy are so important rn. this tendency to think analysing information or getting more data will save us is missing out developing imagination and creativity to allow people to have the capacity to hold a different future and not passively accept what's dictated by tech companies. 🎀

It may sound defeatist. But I think a larger problem is that despite the increase in social awareness, introspection and critical analysis without cognitive dissonance is still at an all time low. People may not like the way things are, but they’re unwillingly to change the things that ‘feel’ like comfort. We need to find a way to incite initative and curiosity for what the future holds. Otherwise, we’re going to be another era that falls into ruin. Only problem is we have very few relatable examples of an equal, equitable, and the potential for a utopian future. Consumerism has really got us in a chokehold, I fear.

Poverty doesn’t exist because we can’t feed people , it exist because we can’t satisfy the rich

that reminds me of this YouTube video about how tech is being used to make us feel like we're progressing when in reality we are still operating with archaic structures (colonialism, yt supremacy etc)

You really need to look into what China is doing. While the west is eating itself for profits, China is actually building future.

we're all socialised to think about various imaginary tech products when we think about the future, instead of ways we might change society to make life better for everyone. gadgets instead of progress.

Hiding the alternative in plain sight, post labor economics is ready now, we can already automate ports, warehouses, manufacturing, agriculture etc, only scenarios that can't be automated is where humans are constantly involved like transport but there's still workarounds and the things we can't automate are what peeps are actually interested in, like healthcare and the arts. Don't take my word for it tho, TheSleepyKuma are running post labor as a business experiment NOW.

Yessss!! I’ve noticed for over a decade that the “latest technology”wasn’t innovative, it was just more storage at the old price point. Also, all of this is one of the reasons why my current vision of the future involves solar punk!

I can strongly recommend "utopia for realists" by Rutger bregman. He faces exactly that topic that we lost to dream about a better future. Really amazing book ✨

The future may be here, but I don't agree that tech doesn't revolutionise things, it's just you don't notice change. I started as a web developer in the 90s after TBL invented it. There was no web, nobody had mobile phones, everything you bought and everything you read was done in person with bits of paper when I was at University. The only communities that were not physical ones, were IRC, techie weirdos using desk top pcs via modems plugged into your phone socket. The web has changed rather a lot since then. I now work as a cloud AI engineer, this revolution will be bigger than the web. Wrestling control if it out of the hands of the billionaire Corporatocracy has been the goal of the open source and open knowledge communities since before the web. I have been a part of that in a small way, it is the most significant socio political movement of the last 100 years. Strangely one that nobody much outside technologists are even aware of. But why do you think Microsoft no longer charge 96% of users for software to access the internet as they did in 1995?

“futurism” as an aesthetic is also just an idea from like 60s / 70s Hollywood thinking about the 21st century as a concept - flying cars, living in space etc…now we’re in 2025 and that’s clearly not the reality it’s irrelevant - we’re post-futurism

all rooted back to consumerism & this technofeudalist era we’re in. we have no codes, ethics, principles & posture as if, that’s why it’s hard to practice futurist ideals centred around people & society outside the context of big tech.

People call Steve Jobs, a genius for inventing the iPhone, but smart phones and blackberries where around for nearly a decade before

we don't get a lot of movies and media that display the alternatives, but I have seen a few "aesthetic posts" on tik tok that show things like an eco punk future. The future is always coming regardless of tech and politics. That lens opens up so many possibilities
