    It’s not science that’s destroying society - its the misuse of science and worse, greed that has a veneer of science or rather, $cience.

    It’s the usual story of capitalism, oligarchy and big corp ruining everything for everyone but themselves.

        Thing is, technology just… is, neither bad nor good. The principles behind every single technological breakthrough have always existed, we just figure out how they work.

        Like a knife, science is a tool. The ones who misuse the tool (i.e. us) are to blame for the damage done, not the tool itself.
