Co-host virtualcasters debated over an upcoming election between two candidates, one promising to ''Evolve'' humanity''s unification with technology and the other promising to ''Dismantle Everything!''


    "We''ve got nothing!" said the host who supported dismantling.


    "What do you mean? We''ve got everything: post-scarcity and robots to serve our every whim. What more can we ask for?"

    "Purpose … It was the same when people were facing the climate crisis. No matter what was happening, they wanted a reason to exist."


    "Nonsense! I enter my VR world, which is so immersive, beyond reality, greater than my dreams. I feel total euphoria and bliss."


    "Exactly …"


    "What? Exactly what?"


    "It''s all predictable. Regardless of our different life experiences, this ''post-singularity paradise'' is all by someone else''s design."


    "Is that why you''re supporting your candidate?"


    "Yes, mine wants to dismantle it all and shake up the system!"


    "Then what?"


    "No one knows! But at least I''ll have free agency in the chaos!"
