i wonder how many mozarts are mining cobalt in the congo right now
Apparently not enough.
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein’s brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

We probably already have several ‘Mozarts’ at any one time, but due to the class system and the lack of opportunity they’re probably working in some alienating factory trying to scrape by without the time or money or access to learning and materials to engage in their creative endeavours. It’s one of the greatest tragedies of capitalism; the wasted human potential.
IMO this can become bad thinking even though it’s true
A person or group of people need not have the potential of Mozart, or Ramanujan, or Terence Tao in order to justify their emancipation
How many Mozarts do we lose because of capitalism, I wonder?
what he actually means is he wants 1 trillion white people in his 1000 year reich
A trillion people would only strain the environment even more.
Even with nuclear fusion, the waste heat would just cause global warming if we had that many people to provide for
Bozo wants to put them all on a space tube so that way we will have a trillion long boned belters to be racist against.
“A
thosuandmillions ofMozartslithium miners and battery factory workers”Or OR or OR hear me out
Instead of freeing one half of one percent of people from doing all-consuming menial labor day in and day out, we could free a hundred percent of people. That’s already 500 Mozarts!
Motzart
Not Motzart
It’s probably well under 0.5% tbh, except maybe in parts of the imperial core
I should say like, enough for a serious hobby. Everyone should have what 3-4 hours of work per day at this point and then can go try to be Mozart, and once you’re up there you can go full time
Ah yes…a bunch of German operas will fix this pickle
Just to be that guy: most of Mozart’s operas were in Italian.
God damnit… this is my fault for riffing off the dome before coffee
Fostering human greatness in improving their material reality? Sounds like pinko fucking bullshit, if you ask me the Great Man™ is a natural one in a billion phenomena that comes with his giga rare skull shape
Why do I get the feeling this is that dipshit 'subtly hinting at his horniness and desire to become epstein 2
Reverse Malthusism?
Fuck it, I say we skip the Dark Age of Technology and go straight to the Age of Strife.

Every capitalist secretly wants to bring back chattel slavery and they become more deranged each and every day they can’t do so.
