> Technology is this one-way ratcheting mechanism which will crush everything dignified within its trajectory. I'm attached to the idea that only the way out of this is up and out. That the solution is to escape into something(?) hyperreal that confounds the assumptions of our unescapable problem

This is a bizarre thought for me to entertain. I understand the idea of "up and out" but I don't think the next rung to escape technology can be built with technology then. That would not be "out", it would be trapped more than ever before
