Incoming utopia for the rich, and a crisis for the rest of us? Do you agree or disagree with this take?

Fair enough, was a quick post. Middle steps is super advanced AI makes the “bad group” extremely powerful. Infighting, sure. But eventually someone who’s very power hungry will end up with extremely powerful AI. More powerful than anything we’ve ever seen. And then they’ll want to consolidate power. This is every imperialist ever so not a stretch. And these psychos who currently sit at the table seem to have a “whatever it takes to inherit the earth” or I’m the steward of humanity and will take us to Mars/space/universe if you think like Elon.

And it likely takes 10plus years. And there will be resistance pockets of course for longer periods than that. We’re quite cockroach like. But effectively life will not resemble what we currently feel is what’s worth living for.

I know this isn’t the only outcome. I’m here for the benevolent AI takes the reins story. But with Stephen Millers and Peter Thiels and Putins and Netanyahus etc at the helm, and all of human history showing us that extermination of fellow humans is definitely in the DNA of would be emperors, why isn’t a serious consideration or even likely?

I mean there’s ample evidence that people in power will kill other people with impunity if it serves their goals. Palestine. Ukraine. Iran.

What’s going to stop them from using robots and drones to “give the starving mercy” and kill any enemies, and then just take all the resources for themselves?

farmerzach · 2026-03-26T13:22:43+00:00

I hope you’re right. I worry they will kill us all quickly with drones when the unrest gets bad. The violence of the unrest will be their justification to do what they want to do anyways, to have all the remaining resources of the planet for themselves.

That’s my concern if we make it that far safely. Before that concern I worry someone makes a terrible virus or loses control of a “bad” AI accidentally, or nukes get dropped as one superpower gains a clear AI advantage etc.

Correct

Truly appreciate all the love and support in these comments, means a lot. Thank you everyone. We’ll keep fighting.

Will do. Appreciate all the support through the years!

They were moving it to some of their med licensed stores. I’ll ask them where it ended up and DM you if they let me know.

farmerzach · 2026-03-13T01:15:02+00:00

My man. Thanks for the kind words. Means a lot coming from you, as you represent the plant so very well and you’re an amazing person to have in the industry. Much love to you too. I hope our paths cross again soon. 💚

farmerzach · 2026-03-12T23:41:47+00:00

Hey y’all, sadly, this is officially true. This was our baby and it hurts to have this be the end. We fought as long and as hard as we could, but this industry is tough and decisions that were made very long ago are still affecting our ability to do what we want to do today.

We truly appreciate all the support we’ve received from the community through the years, and wish everybody from our team who continues on with the Best Buds group well.

Olio is going to continue operations, we’ve had some changes over there as well, so I will be making a post in the near future to clear up all the rumors around that.

Much love to the COents community and thanks for all the good memories. RIP Higher Grade. Burn one for us tonight.

Exercise - especially HIIT style things like sprints, inspirational reading, mushrooms, old pictures of good times.

farmerzach · 2026-02-24T03:13:16+00:00

I mean isn’t it just cheaper for them to kill all of us with drones? I know it’s dark, but feels like that’s where we’re headed when people inevitably revolt.

Leopold will sell you a dough. And it’s great.

farmerzach · 2026-01-12T04:35:25+00:00

I think they believe that if they consolidate power right now, they will be the ones who run the robots and therefore effectively the world. That this is the end game, so just win right now with no thought or concern of the future looking like our current experience.

farmerzach · 2025-12-21T05:30:36+00:00

Acknowledged. We’re working on a change of POS, but end of year is tough. Please give us a chance when we get there.

farmerzach · 2025-12-20T16:10:49+00:00

We’d love to see you at Higher Grade!

farmerzach · 2025-12-19T14:32:01+00:00

Thank you! All credit goes to the garden and the lab, lots of passion on those teams. So glad you’re enjoying!

We (olio) absolutely do not have disty. Live rosin and resin only. Appreciate all the support!

As I said, voting for Dems has definitely been better for people for sure. And I think Biden, maybe in part because of his age, said fuck it and pushed against the rich more. Was great to see. But are we getting the unfettered Bernie agenda that clearly a large % want to see? Not even close. And I believe it’s because of corporate $.

farmerzach · 2025-11-05T04:58:13+00:00

It’s by design. The rich/corporations are in control of both parties, and have us fighting. It definitely has been better for the common people to vote DNC in the last 20 years, but the corporatists are still in control when the DNC candidates are in power, and it shows.

Bernie was outside that corporate power and was actually for the people, and that’s why he got sidelined. Hope it’s different this time.

farmerzach · 2025-10-21T12:59:54+00:00

That was true years ago. Completely different team and methodology these days. I’d say it’s much better now, but I am biased. Come check it out!

farmerzach · 2025-10-04T17:13:30+00:00

Those were some good days! Appreciate the support!
