Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

why is this guy given attention?
does his "plan" have any substance beyond "things will be awesome, not cringe, just all the good stuff and none of the bad stuff"?
how is he working towards making it a reality?
does he know anything about city planning (playing gompooter gaems doesn't count)?
does he know anything about ____?
why this guy and not any of the other 523.324.237 other 29-year old faildudes around the world who also had a great idea for a utopia after smoking DMT or reading a sci-fi novel or playing a bideo bame?
Because it's Peter Thiel's project.
New York Post is owned by News Corp, Murdoch, who is in cahoots with Thiel.
imagine having so much money and so little connection to reality that you just feel like blowing astronomical sums on some average dudebro's vibes-based utopia scheme
I ask myself this like 800 times a day at this point
