I don't think it's the lyrics that trigger me, though.
As for movies, I can probably relate. I get annoyed when movies try to push my emotional buttons in a way that feels phony or manufactured. A lot of Disney and Spielberg movies tend to have this effect on me.
That also makes me irrationally angry, even though people should be allowed to be wrong...
Seriously, though, I think there's something about the trick(s) these songs use to get stuck in people's heads that triggers a very negative visceral reaction in me, like I'm being violated somehow. This leaves me no room to appreciate the songs' originality or sound design.
A centrally planned economy run by computers, to be more specific, isn't a new idea. Who knows what would have happened if the Soviet Union had implemented the OGAS system. They had the US government worried, but it was defunded because of bureaucratic infighting.
According to Wikipedia Project Cybersyn had some success in Chile before the Allende regime was overthrown by a CIA-supported coup in 1973.
Similar ideas were explored further by a Scottish computer scientist and a professor of economics in a book called "Towards a New Socialism".
I don't know if artificial neural networks (ANN), which is what most people mean when they say "AI" nowadays, would be a lot of help in a system like this. I couldn't find any papers that suggest they perform better than classical models when making economic predictions. A big disadvantage of ANNs is that it's almost impossible to figure out why they come to the conclusions they do. I suppose neural networks could be useful for analyzing public sentiments, though.
More generally, machine learning algorithms trend to be really good at optimization problems, which could come in handy when planning an economy.
Historically, I don't think centrally planned economies have worked very well. If you add computers and AI to the mix, though, who knows! I don't think it's ever been properly tried.
"Toxic" by Britney Spears and "Shape of You" by Ed Sheeran both make me irrationally angry.
The only way it's going to make sense is if you watch it in chronological order. So you have to start with Enterprise.
Why do they want authoritarian communism? Well, I haven't spent months reading Marxist theory, so they probably won't think I'm able to do their arguments justice. For a "better" (and much longer) explanation, ask at hexbear or lemmygrad.
Their argument, as I understand it, seems to be that the USSR, China and North Korea really aren't as bad as Western propaganda suggests. American imperialism is much worse, especially outside of the imperial core, North America and Europe. Also, the people that do get oppressed in AES (actually existing socialism) states mostly deserve it for being capitalists or fascists or libtards.
I'd argue that a "dictatorship off the proletariat" inevitably leads to a small group seizing and holding on to power. They seem to believe that eventually the state will wither away and give rise to Real Communism.
If I understand the post by @db0 correctly, the main point is to decentralise power and infrastructure, yes.
Basically communists that support authoritarian regimes. In this case I could also have written "Marxist-Leninists".
It's not made by tankies, so arguably less revolutionary.
Yes.
In case anyone else is wondering, but doesn't feel like searching the web:
Piefed is similar to Lemmy. It federates with the Lemmyverse, Threadiverse and Fediverse. But with some additional features and differences:
I've never actually used Piefed and most information I could find was three months old. If I missed anything important or made mistakes, please let me know in a reply.
Edit:
The SR-71 is really fast and sleek, sure, but how can it be your favourite when it doesn't even have a massive gun that goes BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT!...?
