I am less afraid of artificial super intelligence getting out of control than artificial super intelligence being controlled. I dont know what an intelligence superior to us would do to us but I sure as hell now what humans would do to other humans if they have absolute control enabled by artificial super intelligence.

Then there must be plenty of things your are willing to do and consequences you are ready to face in order to fight the current state. After all you would even die only to not ‘technically’ support a Nazi.

That’s true. It would have been more accurate to say ‘they have no justification to feel morally superior for not voting’. Though technically the above isn’t asking that they justify. But yes voting itself is a free choice including not to vote, at least in most democratic systems.

Oh, what a noble and utterly meaningless gesture. How many lifes did it save to not “sign your name”? What did it do for the world? Nothing but empty idealism to feel better of oneself. I understand the need for that in current times but lets not pretend it is more than it is.

Instead I do nothing except cry online about it to make me feel like do something, waiting for the echo that reaffirms me.

If you don’t do nothing, you have no justification not vote for the ‘lesser evil’.
