Id love to give robots my job, if all my needs were met and I could do art all day.
Of course, what it actually means is none of my needs will be met and I will be put into a private prison or an incinerator.
I don't understand people who hope for help from the government in our times, because we are like a rag for it, with which it wipes its snot and throws it in the garbage.
You will continue to labor all day for reduced pay, while the robot pretends to do art all day
Reduced pay? If the rich get their way, we're going to be chattel slaves. They hate us so much and are so disgusted with us, even the worst wage slavery is too good for us.
They'll kill off the unclean and disabled in mass exterminations, enslave us for a time while/if their ai gets good enough, and eventually when robots are good enough to replace even slaves, the rich will hunt us for sport and do coloseum games on us.
People really underestimate how fucking awful the ruling class is. They are wicked, despicable people who genuinely think anything above slavery and bowing to them is too good for us poors.
They're already openly talking about a techno-feudalist state in the USA. The rich are a blight, and until people realize that we'll continue to lose.
They are literally comically evil, it would silly if it wasn't reality.
Unfortunately, you are right, it is a pity that so few people understand this, we have a very sad future, although to be honest, we have no future.
There is a word for the future you are describing: exterminism.
Sadly the world appears to be heading that way. This is the most bleak future described in one of my favorite books- Four Futures:Life After Capitalism
It's a quick read . .and highly recommended. https://www.versobooks.com/en-gb/products/59-four-futures
I'll check it out!
I literally see no other future. Its not possible.
Really sad for kids born today.
They will outsource our leisure time to the robots so that we can stay at work forever, and the robots stay at home and fuck our wives.
They will go to the landfill to get their food.
Unless WE give the robots some rather interesting military jobs first.
I have no mouth, but I must scream.
Would not even need an AM to do that to some people {=
They have much debt to pay, oh so much.
109 years is not nearly enough, is it?
Hmm?
Hmm, what about debts that ordinary people have been paying for thousands of years without even knowing it?
Who cares about petty crimes of the standard man, they can almost be forgiven 100%. I'm personally not that vengeful, certain people really are just that bad, that the amount of sheer horror they deserve, does not have a word.
