Get it right, 99.99% of ideological opposition is mostly do to the naked display of wealth concentration where we are literally forcing Americans to bear the higher costs of electricity, noise pollution, actual pollution, and increased cancer rates while they are flushing down trillions of dollars into the drain while Americans lack medicare for all, universal childcare, free higher education, or even a public jobs program (fun fact, all these programs poll above 70-80%).

The naked display of the elites willing to fuck over large swaths of Americans is not only despicable it is in our civic duty to rightfully fight and reject this.

No one wants this yet it is being thrusted upon us and we are forced to pay for this madness. If you ask most Americans they would probably be completely okay with nationalizing big tech or seizing their assets.

Why does this tech have to champion naked displays of greed where the elites feign surprise that people are willing to fight for their lives?

This is the single issue that unites Americans across parties, incomes, and race; it's the class issue of the century and the people yearn for material change.

What did I get wrong exactly?

What I pointed out is that ideological objectors often try to claim that AI is actually technically useless.

The problem with that is that it makes their arguments seem less credible, and even misleads their own supporters into underestimating what they’re dealing with. It’s a literally self-defeating position.
