The only antis I actually respect.

I keep running into these internet antis who swear they are fighting for purity in art, ethics in tech, saving the planet, whatever the slogan of the week is. Then you scroll their profiles and see them posting from a phone mined from a canyon of cobalt, streaming shows all night, and feeding algorithms with every breath. Their worldview folds the moment you tap it with a finger. It feels like watching someone preach minimalism while standing in a glowing mall.

I will say this though. The anti AI folks who live it for real, the ones out in rural pockets turning their own butter and keeping their tech footprint trimmed to the bone, I respect them completely. Their worldview has weight. They walk the talk. They stick to their principles without the WiFi megaphone and without picking and choosing which conveniences they quietly keep.

Everyone else is just trying to cosplay that discipline from behind a touchscreen.
