that er, competing/superior 'DOS' alternative ... there was much to discuss about those now ubiquitous, boring (and more insidiously hackable) matters.
And all the ingredients du jour of the persistent anti-democratic facts of the dis-U.S.A. and its handful of actual rulers? were ever in thebackground--yeah, all of the above:
When IWETHEY was a zygote (and brought forth a Little Red -umm- Plasma Dot!)
1) While the previously vigilant (and habitually? informed) were already on to many forces at work, hazardous to most life-forms:
there were not so many overt 'forces at work' denying (not merely the demonstrable facts of Broken-ness, but) ..the value/nay Necessity of there being such a mental attitude as 'Science'; it. very. Self.
2) Nor was there--in the best cross-hairs available then--that litany of Far-Right-ful/say-it-fast developments occurring at exponential rates (just the usual slow decline since ~1968 happened.)
There were no Fascisti on display possessed of any remote chance of {incorporating a Russky to rickroll the entire populace.) There may even have been unicorns grazing unconcerned in the pasture way-back.)
tl;dr: you said pointless? ( re 'politics' itself? or 'argument'? [surely you jest, if the latter]
Arguments at IWETHY !!! ???
ie. I demur. (Techno developments seem quite less 'interesting' in that previous insanely-great-NewThing POV: as the whole enchilada drifts towards replacing homo-sap-wherever-found:
with a robotic armada geared merely to fund maybe 500 people ...as the N-billion proles develop Soylent puce appetites.
It's fucking-WAR! now, innit? So: H.T.F do I or We or They: Dump Drumpf rapidly as possible?
Screw the brain-dead homo-saps: /we/they who brought this plague to life via sheer slothful thinking and pewling action.. I worry about the n-species who have NO representation (and only poorly-funded Lobbyists.) Every hour that Billionaire Brainless-Trust Rulez ... (fill in your own predicate.)
