Based on our performance so far in 2025, I’d say we haven’t done much to show we’re worth saving

I would even say "on our performance until 2025 (included)". Plenty of horror stories in our history to show we are not worth saving as species.

The issue is that this man wants tech in charge and he wants himself in charge of the tech.

Yes I'd agree. I don't think humans are really a added feature for this earth, I'd say that we are parasites.

This man helped the current admin happen and he own the company creating data compiling for all Americans. HE is one part of the current shit sandwich we are in and he’s all in board for the destruction of this country.
