Americans today are immersed in the most toxic, dishonest, nasty, critical and negative media environment in all of human history. You could argue that, say, North Korea or the Soviet Union in the Pravda era was worse, but for the most part, at least those people knew they were being fed government propaganda.
Today, when you’re trying to find out what’s going on, you get exposed to influencers paid by a foreign country while being propped up by AI and bot farms, mixed in with deliberate lies designed to promote liberals, commercials disguised as content, and opinions offered up by people with an IQ of 80 who’ve never kissed a girl and spent the last 3 years in and out of the psych ward.
The incredible, endless, nasty negativity that we’re fed day in and day out is just one aspect of that, but we’re going to talk about it today because what could fairly be called one of the greatest moments in all of human history happened on Thursday of this week.
Tesla actually made a FLYING CAR.
Now we could argue about whether or not that’s cooler than making a car that drives itself or a reusable rocket ship and how all of those things compare to say putting a man on the Moon, the first flight of the Wright brothers and say the creation of the aircraft carrier, microwave, air conditioner, indoor plumbing, or refrigerator, but out of all the amazing things that have been created in the 5,000 or so years of recorded human history, flying cars have got to be pretty high on the list.
I mean, the first time I saw this, I was like, “This can’t be real. Is this AI?” As it turned out, it was real:
As a human being, how do you not look at that and go, “That is INCREDIBLE!” It’s like one of those moments in human history, like the building of the Egyptian pyramids or the Roman Coliseum, where you just marvel at the incredible things our species is capable of doing.
Yet, it’s amazing how much whining, complaining and negativity this amazing display produced. Just to give you a little sample of it…
Folks, we’re getting closer to the world of the Jetsons…
…and we have all sorts of whiny people who’ve never built anything and done anything for anybody basically going, “I don’t like this because I would prefer that something else had been created instead! If I earned all that money, which I never will because that requires far more effort over multiple decades than I’ve ever put into anything, let me tell you what charitable things I’d do with it despite the fact that I don’t do anything for anybody now.”
As a side note, we always hear about the magical things people would do with the 900 billion dollars Elon Musk has earned by making incredibly cool things like self-driving cars, reusable rockets, and the world’s best electric car company. According to them, if they had that money, they’d fix homelessness, end world hunger, or make sure everybody in the world has a 3,000-square-foot beachfront house and a new Lambo every 5 years.
Meanwhile, I asked ChatGPT to compile how much money every government on earth spent in 2025. Granted, that’s a tough number to compile, so this may not be perfectly accurate, but…
Incidentally, the United States alone spent something like 11.6 trillion dollars locally and federally last year.
If there’s any problem that can be fixed by money, it can be fixed many, many times over with that much dough. So, why isn’t it being done? It’s not because we haven’t looted Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos and the other 1,000 or so billionaires in America; it’s because governments are naturally slow, stupid and wasteful – and that’s setting aside the fact that most real problems can’t really be fixed with money in the first place.
But, getting back to the topic at hand, I agree with Zuby on this:
We’re all constantly being deluged with people who whine, complain, and cry about everything. You could stand on the street corner handing out free $50 bills and they’d bitterly complain because you should have been handing out hundreds.
No matter how good it gets, they can tell you why it used to be better and why it’s still terrible because there’s something they wanted that they didn’t get. It’s always, “Here’s why it’s actually worse than ever…” Meanwhile, we have flying cars, food that can be delivered to our houses, and billion-dollar drugs being used to cure what ails us. I tend to think that maybe Americans who lived through the Revolutionary War, War of 1812, Civil War, WWI, WWII, the Vietnam War, and the Depression might prefer DoorDash and flying cars to what they had to deal with.
Maybe we should all appreciate how amazingly well it’s going in so many different areas in this country. Yeah, it’s not in our nature as humans to be completely satisfied with life, but don’t lose sight of the forest for the trees. This is still THE PLACE more people all over the world want to be than anywhere else. If you’re here and all you’re hearing is how grim, horrible and cataclysmic everything is, maybe you need to consider whether the eternal pessimists out there are getting so negative that they can’t even appreciate a flying car.
I think these retarded people, that are likely critical of fantastic inventions and progress due to their own lack of productive merit, work-ethic and base personal insecurities (call them malcontents), have always existed.
It is just social media forcing the rest of us to have to listen to them that is the problem.
The hilarity is that they use the fantastic modern inventions to communicate their drivel criticism of fantastic modern inventions.
The claim that they would be happy in a pagan world of hemp yurts surviving on sunlight, wind and natural growing tubers and sustainable rodents for food, and they will tell you so typing it on their $2000 Starlink-connected iPad while camping with $20k in high tech gear developed from innovation in the aerospace industry.
Here’s the deal. I don’t hear it, because I don’t give these foolish retarded ingrates the time of day. Not on social media, not in the videos you linked, or go where they are, or anytime I’m exposed to the shit they call words coming out of their mouths. These people, if you can call them that, deserve to be ignored at best, memed until they cry and deported to someplace where their petty complaints will sound like bragging.
I’m glad they don’t spawn. It may be our future saving grace, once the 3rd worlders are administered permanent birth control. Wouldn’t it be ironic if that utopia they are always claiming they can bring about can only happen if they don’t exist.
Sorry. I’m just spewing. Haters gonna hate, and none of those failures at anything productive deserve to lick Elon Musk’s boots. Whiners. Complainers. Criticizers. Go away if you can’t stand how good you have it here in our USA.
