“The West has far too much freedom and needs to give people the option to voluntarily constrain themselves: in food, in sex, in religion and in the computational inputs they accept.”
Incoherent gibberish, too dumb to realize how mask off he is.
I don’t even get his point. You can voluntarily use your freedom to constrain yourself already. What, is the Food Optimizer gonna knock down your door and force-feed you McDonald’s?

Great
“The role of society is to control what people eat, not what drugs they take” ok dude
“I want a future where it’s impossible to conceive of anything new but a disneyland version of the past, but this punk chic who just wrenched everything she ever wanted out of me just posing for a photo doesn’t have goals”
