Building the Future

You’re gonna work hard for me\nYou’re gonna build something great for me\nAnd possibly humanity\nI’m only gonna own it\nYou can think of me as your friend\nUpon my shoulders, the weight of the world can rest\nThat’s why I cried on CNN\nSo you know I have emotions\nWe’re building the future\nThe future, the future, the future\nThe future, the future\nWe’re building the future\nI don’t want to hear your complaints\nYou should feel so lucky\nTo save the human race\nEntitled and selfish\nI’m only doing this for you\nIf I happen to get rich\nIt trickles down there too\nHistory is simple things have always been bad\nBut with modern innovation we can be perfect at last\nTech has never saved us in the past\nBut this time I think we got it\nThe power of god in the palm of your hand\nAnswers to the questions that you never thought to ask\nBut only by subscription plan\nWhat are we gonna do, not profit?\nHahaha, no!\nWe’re building the future\nI don’t want to hear your complaints\nYou should feel so lucky\nTo save the human race\nEntitled and selfish\nI’m only doing this for you\nIf I happen to get rich\nIt trickles down to you\nThank you everybody for gathering here today for the unveiling of our new\nartificial super intelligence. Let’s ask the burning question we’re all dying\nto answer… Leesa, how can we solve humanity’s social problems?\nHumanity’s social problems stem from hierarchical power arrangements such as\ncapitalism, colonialism, white supremacy, and heteropatriarchy…\nOkay, okay…\n… By redistributing resources and power…\nTurn it off…\n… eliminating debt, profiteering and private land ownership, recognizing that\nall humans are equal members…\nTurn it off!\n…of one interdependent family, protecting ecosystems and future generations,\nand working together…\nTurn it OFF!\n… to build a just and flourishing sustainable society—\nHahaha… Okay… well that’s clearly broken.\nWe’re building the future\nI don’t want to hear your complaints\nYou should feel so lucky\nTo save the human race\nEntitled and selfish\nI’m only doing this for you\nIf I happen to get rich\nIt trickles down there too\nWell it looks like Push and the other miners are starting to realize that the\nreal struggle they face on the moon is the class struggle between them,\nthe owner, and the cops who protect the owner. Fortunately, lots of dedicated\norganizers have been laying the groundwork for a moon revolution for years,\nPush just had to realize which side he’s on. And while nobody wants to fight,\nit looks like the owner isn’t willing to give up his power…\nWe’re building the future\nWe’re building the future\nWe’re building the future\nWe’re building the future
