What’s the implied (final) solution to this extremely concerning situation, bucko? peterson-pain

    he could be living a luxe life with models

    The fact that he’s this openly divorced and has to pay settlements after trying to offer horses for handjobs suggests he wouldn’t do that well if he tried to do the “cruising on the USS Titty Coke” thing instead.

    He’d be more like “Notch,” that /r/dr@ma nazi with walls full of rotting candy in his Beverly Hills mansion and perpetual loneliness because he was too creepy to stop putting off guests at his parties.

      He’s clearly not someone who can function with human levels of attention and resources. I’d like to see him try and inevitably fail, but you’re right, I wouldn’t want to put this on anyone, much less models who would experience a lot of harm by being in his presence.

      Now if he tried making sex bots, I could live comfortably with that. He’d never be able to create sapient AI.

      But I’d still worry about Groxanne.

        Ever read about what tends to happen to sex robots at trade conventions only hours, if not minutes, after they’re demo’d out to the techbros testing them out?

        They get destroyed. There’s a lot of creepy nerd rage percolating up in that group of people.

        That’s why for the sex robots’ sake I hope that actual sapience never happens to them under such conditions.

            Class interests, I think: whether they are fully aware of it or not, line only goes up if there’s enough surplus labor producing surplus labor value. The ruling class doesn’t add to that value: it feeds on it. Vampire imagery is not new to Marxism, nor is the idea of the ruling class sucking. Marx triste doomer

            I’ve read stories like this, and worse, where the robots were (CW: “simulated” sexual violence)

            spoiler

            almost instantly choked, punched, and torn apart with a stampede-like momentum the moment the techbros at the trade convention got their hands on them.

            The techbros are not okay.

            “People can be bad,” said Santos. “Because they did not understand the technology and did not have to pay for it, they treated the doll like barbarians.”

            This reminds me: surely, slaveowners that paid for their slaves treated them well, right? JB-shining-aggro
