Do you seriously think that Andreesen would advocate for technological progress regardless of an arbitrarily high cost to human welfare?

When he's one of the biggest backers of the surveillance state and is advocating for even more of that.. yep. I do.

I'll raise a strawman of my own: pretty indicative to see one of the co-authors of the Fascist Manifesto listed in Andreessen's list of "patron saints".

Yes? I think that's pretty clearly what he's advocating in his manifesto that we're discussing.
