Let’s not beat around the bush: the future is circle jerking.
Nothing new. Always was and always will be.
When I was in the UK I managed a working community for homeless people. I quickly learned that we only had xx rooms and thus beds and that not everyone could be picked up. Not everyone wanted it either. But those few tens of people we managed to offer both a roof, food, and a structure in life they were greatful and we made a change for them.
As sad as it may sound, it didn’t take long either before I didn’t struggle rejecting applicants or not being able to take in that one heavily struggling rough sleeper.
But... we did make a change. And that was the take out for us: we can’t help everyone, definitely not solve the world’s problems but those we can help we do make a difference for them.
Btw the future already had a short-term set back as Musk is replacing much of the automation in TESLA’s series 3 line with humans. Of course, that merely a short-term issue, we still have Uber and Lyft and TESLA trucks.
This is the wonder. If this is the issue then who is in the circles matters a great deal to how those without are going to get supported.
