The world is now so full of ridiculous things that at least I struggle to deal with it all. But this is not an 'us' problem. The (political) world really is idiotic. I needed to vent a bit, so I made a list of things that are impossible to believe, yet are very much what is happening. Perhaps seeing it in writing will help you deal better with the situation. https://berthub.eu/articles/posts/the-impossible-things-we-have-to-believe/
@bert_hubert Isn't the "answer" to your open question just Ostrogorski's paradox? In the end it's all about priorities, making one topic politically (electorally) important leads to other topics getting solutions no one wants.

Adding the seventh incredibile thing, the larger repository of open source/ free software is owned by the most closed source, monopolist, AI addicted company, that freely can dig in the repository for their own interests. And it's icon is at the bottom of your blog page. -

@bert_hubert Zou dit allemaal misschien komen door het geloof dat oneindig economische groei mogelijk is op een eindige planeet?

@IngeMH20 ik probeer te voorkomen te grote theorieën te hebben over mensen. Ik weet wel zeker dat we als mensheid enorme moeite hebben met bedreigingen die wat verder weg zijn serieus te nemen. Als dat zou lukken zouden we niet zo stom stemmen.

@bert_hubert Thanks for ending with the Restaurant at the End of the Universe. As long as there is also still brilliant stuff like the Hitchhiker’s Guide, we’ll be okay. And so will you! You’re doing a lot of good.

@hmblank did my link time out? Tell me everything about your internet connection please!
@bert_hubert Right now I'm on my phone's hotspot - Fairphone 3 with KPN subcription. No complaints even with YouTube and watching TV. But your links don't work, the second one doesn't either.

Your story reads like on the beach by nevil shute. The novel that since long stands in the shadow of 1984, but is not less important. -

@bert_hubert The word 'simulacrum' is popular of late.
The word indicates a false reality to cover for the fact that behind it there is no reality.
Take the manosphere: it is not about being a man and somehow manliness is espoused continously. Take government IT: the paper reality looks great.

@bert_hubert Nope, het wil niet. Allebei niet. Als ik de enige ben, verspil er dan geen tijd aan.
