    Technocratic ideology to me isn't just investing in technology, you're suggesting I'm that dumb? Holy shit. Technocratic ideology to me involves pushing forward with destructive technologies without considering future or present societal impacts. There was a time when the US highway system was considered "latest technology" and so the car's unquestioning adoption by the masses has led us to climate change today. Same with social media and bitcoin. Advances in technology are part of what has allowed Capitalism to persist well into the modern day, why you keep hearing from these same bozos about "innovation" on CNBC and whatnot. And they look for it in the dumbest places.
