just really kinda yikes and cringe and 😬

2020-02-02 11:44:44 UTC  

either way its all about what he likes about yang

2020-02-02 11:45:00 UTC  

maybe the idiot is all about climate change

2020-02-02 11:45:12 UTC  

if hes that kind of fag, you can explain trump did more for carbon reduction than obama

2020-02-02 11:45:39 UTC  

if its about healthcare, fuck let me chat him up, I'll destroy anyone that thinks medicare for all is good.

2020-02-02 11:45:48 UTC  

it doesn't seem like Yang focuses on climate change, he mostly fearmongers about automation and relies upon his schtick of $1000 a month for every American citizen of age 18 and above

2020-02-02 11:45:59 UTC  

automation *is* scary

2020-02-02 11:46:02 UTC  

and one of his only valid points

2020-02-02 11:46:07 UTC  

yangbucks is a stupid meme, though.

2020-02-02 11:46:15 UTC  

i mean, a lot of he says about it is exaggerated and wrong though

2020-02-02 11:46:26 UTC  

sure, but its a presidential campaign, everything is exaggerated.

2020-02-02 11:46:35 UTC  

the underlying point is valid

2020-02-02 11:46:55 UTC  

skynet isnt about to kill all the poor people, but lots of industries are looking at wholesale kicking out people

2020-02-02 11:47:11 UTC  

yang suggesting a tax on robot employees to force companies to use less efficient humans, though? dumb as rocks.

2020-02-02 11:47:20 UTC  

there was this one restaurant that served food using these things that people can just walk up to and pick what they want or whatever and it actually has people in the back making the food but he claimed that many jobs were actually being lost through that

2020-02-02 11:47:34 UTC  

he was totally unaware that people were behind these things making the food

2020-02-02 11:47:41 UTC  

and he went to this place and got food there

2020-02-02 11:47:58 UTC  

the same technology or whatever it also used by some other places now I think, but that's just one example

2020-02-02 11:48:03 UTC  

Some jobs *are* lost with kiosks dude

2020-02-02 11:48:07 UTC  

or like with the truckers too, that's not a done deal either

2020-02-02 11:48:12 UTC  

they cut down on front-of-shop service staff

2020-02-02 11:48:17 UTC  

and the trucker thing is a HUGE scary problem

2020-02-02 11:48:39 UTC  

a lot of times he assumes that nobody will be needed for these things anymore, when you still have to have people there making sure everything's going okay and doing things the robot will never be able to do

2020-02-02 11:49:17 UTC  

so when all the trucks are automated, what will the ~4m cdl drivers do?

2020-02-02 11:49:19 UTC  

lol

2020-02-02 11:49:30 UTC  

ballast?

2020-02-02 11:49:36 UTC  

those computers can't do street driving, or unloading or anything like that

2020-02-02 11:49:41 UTC  

yet.

2020-02-02 11:49:47 UTC  

the lines on the road also have to be perfect

2020-02-02 11:50:02 UTC  

well I don't see it happening any time soon, and he doesn't make an adequate case to it

2020-02-02 11:50:05 UTC  

we're two years into self-driving cars and you can already drive cross country in one

2020-02-02 11:50:08 UTC  

and it isn't really demonstrable

2020-02-02 11:50:29 UTC  

we aren't even at l5 cars yet

2020-02-02 11:50:40 UTC  

but over the next 10-15 years? absolutely

2020-02-02 11:50:46 UTC  

a massive chunk of truckers will be unemployed

2020-02-02 11:52:25 UTC  

yes

2020-02-02 13:25:13 UTC  

yes

2020-02-02 14:10:14 UTC  

Yes, think of how many horsemen would be employed if we outlawed cars and wanted the same horsepower and productivity
