What are some good anti-nature, pro-technology texts? Seriously, we escaped that shit for a reason.

Start with The Lord of the Rings. Then read Kaczynski's manifesto. After that, read Ellul's The Technological Society.

Every pseud either tards out or chimps out at this line. None of them want to confront the obvious fact that "we're outside of the food chain" and all of them will resort to some esoteric and ephemerally wistful bullshit or some irrelevant context where humans are reduced to primeval roles.

We didn't escape our own nature though. We are still animals obsessed with sex.

How can you escape nature? It's impossible. That fake city is a big human hive.

>we escaped
we’re one food shortage away from collapse. We haven’t escaped.

[Anonymous No.13381155]

>>13381136
Why not two?
Why a collapse?
What is a collapse?
What is a food shortage?
How big is a food shortage?
Is a food shortage possible?
Food shortages were not that rare in countries like the early USSR (the last famine happened in 1947), and it was an industrialised and urbanised country, yet no collapse happened. Why?

They didn’t depend on industrial farming as much as we do today, they still had nature in their memories. It just takes takes a few big food companies to go down and most people wouldn’t know what to do.

Our nature is based in and part of Nature though. Rejecting Nature is tantamount to rejecting any balance and understanding in ourselves. Not to mention our existence is dependent on the biosphere.

I have technophile and totalitarian inclinations because I like the aesthetic of deeprooted societal suffering. And in my childhood I would strive to meet the approval of others as I was met with violence and abuse, often this approval was unattainable, damned if I do damned if I don't type of thing. So the control given by quantitation and the designed is reassuring for me. I don't trust anyone. You are probably similar or braindead.

Maybe try What Technology Wants or The Inevitable by Kevin Kelly. Or his very good blog.

Or perhaps L'homme Machine by Julien Offray de La Mettrie, which was one of the first philosophical texts to describe the inner workings of man as machinelike, dissolving the boundary between "natural and artificial" and opening the way towards a materialist/mechanistic philosophy.
