Nope. I literally know people exactly like this. One guy at my job has at least one amazon speaker in every room of his house, including the bathrooms.
These soulless golems think civilization is just technology and material goods, and dont realize it has *already collapsed*. Religion, Art, and Philosophy are also an important part of civilization, and all of those things have taken 10 steps backward for every technological advancement we have made (not necessarily due to the technology, but because (((Materialistic))) people neglect all those things in favor of mindless consumption). We are in a true societal Dark Age, but technology masks the rot by providing the illusion everything is running normally. If a massive EMP wave were to wipe out all electronics for a month, we would see how utterly savage everyone has degenerated into being.

>“One of the strongest points for a common Brahmin-Jewish origin is the fact that in **both communities have been endogamous priests from the earliest times of their recorded history**: It may also be observed in this respect that the Hebrews, as well as their Indian counterparts, Brahmins, consider themselves as the ‘Chosen People of God.’ The Hebrews started their corporate career in history as a ‘Kingdom of Priests.’ Likewise, the Brahmins have also been a ‘Community of Priests’ since the dawn of their history.” **~ Professor Madan Mohan Shukla**; *The Hebrews Belong to a Branch of Vedic Aryans*; Vishveshvaranand Indological Journal; 1976
> “And Abraham gave all that he had unto Isaac. But **unto the sons of the concubines**, which Abraham had, **Abraham** gave gifts, and **sent them away** from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, **eastward, unto the east country**.” **~ The Book of Genesis**, chapter 25, verses 5-6
Ted studied Jacques Ellul's "[The Technological Society](https://archive.org/details/JacquesEllulTheTechnologicalSociety)" (1964). According to his brother, Ted considered it "his bible".
Which is a very interesting read and a Christian perspective on man's relation ship with technology and the way that shapes society.
Ellul was also inspired by Huxley's works and Huxley praised Ellul's writing befoe he knew of that.
Ellul's writings formed the philosophical underpinning of the Neo-Luddite movement.
there is no way in hell a human being wrote that, fucking A.I slop for sure.
