    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

      For some reason each and every conversation with “authoritarian power structures” or “hierarchies” i ever witnessed or read, always logically moved towards returning to monke, even if they stopped earlier.
