Heidegger actually borrows the concept of Technik from ancient Greek concept of "techne".

Failure to discern between the simulacrum of something real and the real thing is not a problem of actually-existing technology that actually works, it's an ontological problem imposed by force of an epistemic consensus.

The problem at the root of all evils of the anglosphere is the idea that you can make your own reality just by wishing it hard enough.

Like a prayer.
