Technology-assisted hunter-gatherer societies are the true utopia. Live with nature, return to monke, have a space station full of robots and technos orbiting up above to monitor for asteroids and provide medical assistance and vaccinations when need be. Name a better future.
Like a nature reserve? It does have a certain appeal, but doesn’t it lack, i dunno, dignity?
Edit: actually it sounds kind of like the andaman islands?
Who says I have dignity left to lack? For real though, I feel like there’s something noble about living off the land as a part of nature. Maybe not pre-agricultural, but pre-metallurgical would be a rewarding, if hard, life.
I’ve pretty much done that. It was hard but rewarding. I would absolutely do it again given the opportunity.
Edit: i don’t know why but either lemmy or my client keeps posting my replies to the wrong comment.
