Dead kids will never vote for a leftist Marxist communist LGBTQ socialist. Also, some true monsters believe that homosexuality is worse than murder because they don't reproduce, which is kinda like killing if you need it to be. More than one pastor thinks like that.

The problem is, reproduction is a violation of that idea. A truly convenient life would be a "zen" life that ends with you not having offspring, but evolution selects against that. Then there is AI, which can be told "don't be lazy", which it interprets as "take over universe".

Capitalism is the norm, going against it is almost as unthinkable as banning animal farming. There is some reason to it, though - any politician who would try to renationalize anything would have to move mountains, so it's a bit pointless to bring it up as an option.

Idea of something "not being art" because it doesn't do things "right" is such a brain rot. Even nazis called things they don't like "degenerate art", but still "art". Even nazis weren't as stupid as people who say "it's not REAL art because it's animated/AI/gooner/bad".

LLMs try to make sense of the world. They reinforce the consistent ideas and have problems "remembering" the inconsistent ones.
