@neauoire I’m knee deep in academic reading right now and one thing I’m getting from it is that in our current neoliberal/late capitalism world the ability (or appearance of ability) to predict is the primary marker on intelligence. And so we get a raft of prepper activity based on predicting the end of the world and all of the attendant fantasies and self-granted social permissions. What you are saying seems much more useful and in line with my fave futurism, LeGuin’s interpretation of Carrier Bag Theory.
