Social categorization is incredibly vague, so it's still not clear to me what you feel should be abolished.

Location (country, state, city)?

Why only on Lemmy, and what good examples are there?

It's not disadvantageous for the US if continuing the research means giving China a military advantage.

A lot of AI research isn't specifically done for military purposes, but there are plenty of ways the military can (and does) use it.

Being anti-socialism is caring about people.

Reality.
