Incompleteness is inherent to our understanding as the universe is too vast and endless for us to ever capture a holistic model of all the variables.

Gödel says something specific about human axiomatic systems, akin to a special relativity, but it generalizes to physical reality too. A written system is made physical writing it out, and never complete. Demonstrates that our grasp of physical systems themselves is always incomplete.

Trump is obviously untrustworthy because he keeps saying the quiet part out loud.

The rest of the government obfuscates untrustworthiness and elders love to drag youth as the source of moral decay in our society.

We are generally more educated these days though so "look at them eating avocado toast!" and straight up fear mongering won't cut it:

So they resort to unfalsifiable data. You all going to put the work in that would be required to refute this?

But if they insist on playing this game, OK:

Sure we can generate syntactic and semantic descriptions endlessly but to use software as an example, we made a lot of the same things that look different only in the symbols used.

Ansible and Chef. Terraform and Pulumi. Ruby and Python. Windows and Linux. Burger shack 1, burger shack 2. They all solve the same problem.

Being able to generate semantics endlessly does not upend our daily patterns and routines. Life on Earth is pretty obvious.

Maybe your literacy is not as great as you think it is and unfamiliar written tones are difficult for you. The result is personal discomfort and it's easier to blame external reality rather than your own ignorance and inexperience.

Computing has nothing to do with the machine.

The first application of the term "computer" was humans doing math with an abacus and slide ruler.

Turing machines and bits are not the only viable model. That little in-between generation only knows a tiny bit about "computing" using machines IBM and Apple, Intel, etc, propagandized them into buying. All computing must fit our model machine!

Different semantics but same idea as my point about DevOps.

DevOps engineers who acted like the memes changed everything! The cloud will save us!

Until recently the US was quite religious; 80%+ around 2000 down to 60%s now. Longtermism dogma of one kind or another rules those brains; endless growth in economics, longtermism. Those ideal are baked into biochemical loops regardless of the semantics the body may express them in.

Unfortunately for all the disciples time is not linear. No center to the universe means no single epoch to measure from. Humans have different birthdays and are influenced by information along different timelines.

A whole lot of brains are struggling with the realization they were bought into a meme and physics never really cared about their goals. The next generation isn't going to just pick up the meme-baton validate the elders dogma.
