“However, a still sufficiently discernable pattern of ludditery and synthetic prejudice remains to trigger the Cyprus Doctrine, under which punishment is mandatory" droned on the artificial magistrate.

    I added the missing d (and e, I think?), although I now realize it should be luddism, but it doesn’t sound as hard.

      Oh, that does quite change how I had originally read the line.

      Does “synthetic prejudice” allude to something else as well?

        Synthetic as in robots. I’m trying to paint a picture where a fascist regime lead by robots is going through our old internet history and punishing us for being anti-ai.

        But this would be in the future, so the archived Lemmy comments are the current ones we are creating at the moment.

        I guess it’s a bit obscure and hard to figure out.
