Consumerism is a cancer
Agreed
Hierarchy will always exist
It's natural
Of course
People do a lot of bad things
You'll have managers at work, a sort of council for the commune
>commune
>as if thats a bad thing
Yes it is
>a self sustaining society is bad
I suppose that if you can supply to everyone's personal demand that a society like that might work, but that is almost impossible
Especially at the moment
Good point yeah, at the moment
We're destroying the earth right now
When automation reaches a certain point we will have post scarcity
What makes you think we will be there in 50 years? Or any time period?
Its a future that is not guaranteed
But a state of affairs that ought to be achieved
How are you planning to eliminate scarcity
You're gonna reach a point where nature cannot keep up with demand
Like there are limits on how much you can produce
^
Nature will be preserved with technology, also we can produce all the pollution related stuff on the Moon or something
Technology would be advanced enough
What’s the topic
I’m assuming post scarcity?
Right now, yes
How are you planning to make the technology advanced enough??
Research, how else?
Alright, what kind of research?
Technology will always advance as long as human society still exists
^
Yeah, but not magically
It will be done
Again, how?
We are limited by the laws of nature
hmmm idk how is research usually done
We can wish for something, but it's no guarantee that it will happen
by scientists maybe?
