The vast majority of people would prefer to move to a community which is permitted to exclude from their meatspace environment those they consider a bad influence on their children for whatever reason. Deprive them of meatspace and many of not most of those who might otherwise not resort to digital Fentanyl will do so. And, no, it isn't ok to mock people for simply promising not to "commit genocide" in exchange for permitting such a fundamental human right. The reason that isn't ok? Because by so-denying them that most fundamental of all human rights, they then have every right to engage in behaviors that those violating them will, with absolute certainty, characterize as "genocide". ------------------------------------------ Artificial General Intelligence List: AGI Permalink: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/T95d92c4766a58e8e-M44ec763ecc9b9021c535a382 Delivery options: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/subscription
