Thanks for your low quality input.

I don't know about anyone else, but I got into computers at a young age because it gave me a sense of control over something. I didn't understand everything, but I could do a lot of trial and error, read things and experiment, build cool things, and I shared a sense of community with some random internet strangers based on that knowledge.

In a world where we are so powerless in so many other ways, why did we insist on bringing that power dynamic into the new bright tech sphere? Why did we have to do that? (N.B. this is rhetorical questioning).

I don’t like how tech is evolving…

Yeah, I'm not sure I like how the axe in my hand is evolving. It seems to be going for the internet fiber.

I'm not sure whether this is just trolling or whether you sincerely believe what's in the meme, so I'm going to push back on it.

I think pretty much everyone is in agreement that the USSR's economic model had fallen to shit by the 1980s. Why on earth do you think they would even entertain switching to anything approaching capitalism?

Ever heard the phrase "We pretend to work and they pretend to pay us" joke? It wasn't for nothing. Centrally directed economies don't tend to work very well.

I'd argue that causation may be the other way around.

You are a real piece of work.

My point is that you seem to believe the people working for the organisation should be happy to work for the military and you seemed to be unable to comprehend why they could be unhappy. I was trying to give you some perspective but that seems to have gone right over your head.

Ah, I see, you're just a troll. And here was me thinking you might just be uninformed.

Do you support UK military infrastructure being used secretly to aide Israel's 'war' in Gaza? Would you be happy contributing to that system?

That’s a bit weird to complain about, since Turing worked for the UK defense, and cracked the Enigma, and was a significant factor to the success of D day.

Yeah but he actually, you know, signed up directly to the military. These people signed up to a civilian charity.

Make sure you enclose it so they know that they're not part of the community.
