This reminds me of a video I can’t find. As I remember it, it was a bunch of Anglos using VR to “experience” what it’s like for children working in mines in Africa. No surprise, most of them reacted badly and/or tapped out.
Then at the end they asked the people what they thought VR should be developed, could make people more empathetic, etc. and they all were in agreement. Then it turns out the kids were mining materials for tech components like the VR goggles and the people were still in agreement.
Please let us know if you find that vid again
I know it isn’t him but that sounds like a boyboy video, only darker than usual
lol, it’s worse than I remembered. Thanks for digging that up
this is the tech bro version of ‘if everyone just smoked weed/did acid we’d have no wars’
Okay, hear me out.
In exchange for an end to the war, both Putin and Zelensky can issue one another exclusive commemorative NFTs. This will bind them in friendship and also create a real financial incentive for lasting peace.
My apes, all gone!
leave it to libs to ruin bimbofication smdh
Bimbostroika
trans women gonna plug into the matrix for this shit tho
I remember being absolutely fascinated by something like this in a ted talk years and years ago, like 2008 or 2010? Didn’t crack my egg though :(
I get the totally normal cis male urge of playing Virt-A-Mate in VR as a girl being pummeled by a man with his hip thrusts synced to the fuck machine positioned below me.
VR technology really is something.
what the-
11/10 experience. Would recommend.
✍ getting… pegged… by… skynet… treats… dysphoria…
Forced empathization treatment for class war mongers:
You will experience
a day in the shoes of a landlord
until you display considerable empathy to the propertied class, brutish scumNow put on the glasses and pay your rent
or we could do real gulags and make them do real labor
every retail store a gulag staffed by former PMCs, petit bourgeois, and bourgeois. and then we can pay former retail workers to be as rude to them as they were
I’m imagining someone sitting on a stool while people stock shelves or whatever, and just insulting them every few minutes with a scowl on their face.
Libs not weaponise women to push their own agenda challenge: impossible
putin owned by transforming him into a beautiful woman
Turns out he was just dysphoric!
Bad people in history? They all just needed to get their eggs cracked.
I mean, the two transwomen I know IRL were absolutely unsufferable before coming out
About me:
absolutely unsufferable before coming out
I mean I still am but not as much as I was
On the other hand, the two transguys I know IRL have always been easy going albeit “the odd ones” before coming out
Eeey I’m doing a misogyny ova’ here
Me, sneaking up behind Putin to catch him off his guard and put the VR goggles on him.
In this moment, i am euphoric
If this was a real thing, it would absolutely be turned into the Torment Nexus.
The truly sad part is, is that this is one of the most respectable mainstream newspapers in Germany. The bar really is that low.
When I say “bazinga brain” that linked headline is EXACTLY what I mean. Put it in the UlyssesT slang dictionary with that as a given example.
Also, knowing how techbro creeps tend to think and act, chances are that any sufficiently advanced VR treats would just be used by those techbro creeps to get off to human suffering from new and exciting temporary perspectives, the same way they like to visit impoverished areas for short bits at a time to get off to the misery, like that 90s movie Strange Days (CW: SV if you look that up).
Come to think of it, in a lower tech way, THIS HAS ALREADY HAPPENED.
OMFG I didn’t know about that Puerto Rico thing
What an epic and exciting time to peddle new VR toys! High five!
This particular obvious grift hits me as a weird mixture of sinister and pathetic
