Everybody privately shit-talks everybody. The phone always listens to it and records it. A viral hack that turns all this shit-talking into texts. Everybody in the world suddenly gets a thousand shit-talking texts from their family, friends and associates. Society dissolves.

    Interesting. A few comments and criticisms on the details. Zero replies pertaining to my actual point. And lots of downvotes.

    They are afraid.

      “It’s crazy that 1+1=3”
      “No, it literally doesn’t. 1+1=2.”
      “Why are you criticizing the DETAILS? Reply to my point!”

        What do you call somebody who insists upon ignoring the forest, preferring to closely examine the bark on a single tree?

          Idk.

          If they’re only one who notices they’re all plastic and that the forest is therefore artificial, and hence in no way representative of actual nature…

          A genius?

          The LLM-based search result summarizer of my “trust” says the following: Someone who insists on ignoring the forest and closely examining the bark on a single tree might be called detail-oriented, nitpicky, or shortsighted.
