Recently had to read a textbook for my ethics class where it said that one of the concerns with technological advancement was that certain technologies promote "authoritarian power structures." What technologies did they use as examples? Railroads and nuclear power plants.
I hate this class
Lol! What is this textbook!? How do they think we would feed humanity and meet their electrical energy requirements? ๐
They said solar panels were congruent with democratic ways of life. So I guess just putting solar panels in everyone's houses _-~-_/
And who's gonna source the raw materials needed for panels and the batteries, design them, manufacture them, and distribute them at a subsidized price?
China
