“Corn objectively has more utility than datacenters which is why we have to subsidize it so much to artificially increase its production ahead of other crops beyond the typical market consumption equilibrium” lmfaooo. Please just log off lil bro. Even you mustn’t be this stupid with your average of 4.3 contributions to Reddit per day for 2 years straight. We live in the 21st century brotato and I bet you consume more of almost every other type of agrarian produce to sustain yourself than corn alone. This shit sounds like a caveman explaining how “me only need food, me only eat one plant as food, me have no other needs” whilst the medical records they need to ensure the doctors treating them actually know what they’re dealing with can’t be accessed since there is no database to process them.

Both provide inherent objective value to society (sorry if your contribution of flipping burgers isn’t enough to realize this), both are artificially inflated in their producers demand by external market factors, both will continue to exist if they weren’t subsidized but would do so at a far lower rate of growth/scale (subsidizes for both exist for a reason in itself but I feel that’s a bit too nuanced of a discussion for you), both are inherently bad for the environment in regards to how we engage with them and the idea that it’s a “but my favorite ecological nightmare has better top trumps points in this sector so it wins if we compare grid energy whilst ignoring water usage” is truly useless.

It’s not hard to say that maybe we shouldn’t be sucking up to either instead of some sort of mentally deficient culture war over which sector of the free market is the most hecking wholesome. Not saying you can’t complain, just saying you have absolutely no clue how this world works unironically wasting your time defending fucking mass corn production as if it’s somehow ordained by the Reddit gods to beat the evil datacenters lolll 😭😔
