I've been reading "The Feminine Mystique" by Betty Friedan recently. One of the things that has stood out to me is the early American lamentation that women's intellectual potential is wasted in their subjugation. If 19th century aristocrats could see that about women, why can't their modern heirs see it about the working class?

They are so desperate to build machines that possess human intellect so that they might have more pliable slaves, yet they would squander the massive, efficient computing power of a billion unique human spirits in order to avoid sharing a fraction of a percent of their hoarded wealth.

What's more, these people are perverting large parts of mathematics and computer science in pursuit of their agenda, poisoning a new generation against the serious study of human reasoning and its relation to logic.

A ruling class that casually dismisses its people as "intellectually disabled" in order insult and suppress them is asking to be removed from power.
