1. All known forms of ignorance can be trivially resolved 2. Post scarcity economics reduces the need for conflict substantially

1. “all known forms of ignorance” you must see the problem there 2. only recognized conflict- in fact, *forced* mind uploading is just another form of “peace through totalitarianism” killing everyone would be even more effective, if “reducing conflict” is your only telos

A problem that's intrinsic to every alternative is not an argument against any one system. What system can recognize unknown forms of ignorance? What system can recognize unrecognized conflict? This is silly.

science does both

Why is science incompatible with uploaded minds?

going to mars doesn’t conflict with science either, but it’s not an answer to fundamental problems uploading minds/colonizing mars just doesn’t solve either of those conflicts, they are solutions to narrow problem-descriptions

further, it doesn’t actually seem all that trivial to “solve” “known ignorance” if you look at the world, people disagree on what ignorance even *is*

Yes, but the fact that 98% of human beings are insane doesn't change the fact that 2% are broadly correct and in agreement.
