I think it's fair to summarize them thusly:<br /><br />A) I don't care what he thinks<br />B) He doesn't understand us<br /><br />These are devastating rebuttals of your arguments. I don't know Dale I think I may have to stop reading your blog and ... where's the queue for the robot girlfriend?jollyspaniardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10999141103840765243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956838.post-21034378682159734182012-06-01T08:54:20.892-07:002012-06-01T08:54:20.892-07:00> Giulio Prisco gets to the heart. . .

Sirius analysis is accurate.<br /><br />Charlie Stross may have political opinions similar to those of Dale Carrico, and agree with Carrico's critique of transhumanism to some extent, but he doesn't make a fool of himself by pretending to consider transhumanist aspirations scientifically impossible. He knows better. See also my thoughts on some of Carrico/Stross points.<br /><br />Carrico's "arguments" boil down to "You are a filthy Robot Cultist, so you are not qualified to have opinions on serious political issues." These are the same "arguments" often used by those homophobes who say "You are a filthy gay, so you are not qualified to have opinions on serious political issues," so they are quite surreal when they come from a gay rights activist like Carrico.jimfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04975754342950063440noreply@blogger.com
