Ever-increasing automation and AI integration is likely to cause a commie renaissance.

big love for peopels love for communism is
A. they want free money and they think they'll get it
B. They've been lied to by school/the state about career prospects

C. mass immigration pushing wages down and ruining job vacancies

think of it this way: you work at amazon and they own the apartment complex you live in, the banks you do business at, the stores you shop from, the car you drive, the networks you communicate on, the health network you want to use... everything in your life is owned by the corporation you work for. If they want you to work yourself to death all day everyday for basically nothing then you do it or lose it all

and the state is encouraging this

Don't worry the market will adapt @Misomania /s

Automation and AI will cause concentration of wealth in those who own the capital and patents -> fewer low and unskilled workers necessary (and those positions that remain competed for globally or by third-world immigrants) -> collapse in wages and standard of living -> massive obvious income disparity fracturing society -> Class Consciousness 2.0!

and the corporations encourage the state.

step out of line of your corporate masters and you lose it all and get blacklisted from working again

Ffs

@Atkins patents are only a thing the government can enforce.

My internet is so bad

I couldn't send any message

@Grenade123 most patent defense is done privately

tell that to china

@LEER adapt to what. Right now most industries are monopolies. ex: all offbrand food is produced by 6 vendors

they sue using laws adopted by the government.

which is why Disney keeps fucking with things like fair use.

@Grenade123 you can also starve slaves and oppress them so they can't revolt.

to keep Mickey from entering public domain

>fewer low and unskilled workers necessary
>bring in millions of low and unskilled migrants
>profit?

@JohnOakman starving increases chance of revolt, not decreases.

it also leads to less production

and more man power needed for defense.

@Aghost why would it be wrong to use slaves to build railroads or harvest crops?

cheaper to keep them fed and happy.

look at the american public

If robots replace general workers,

the wages of bodyguards/security companies is gonna skyrocket

only recently when the slave masters took things too far have the slave populations started to cause trouble

so for you americans, if you wanna stay in a "wage" position, learn to use a gun and stay fit 😉

corporate gulag.... work yourself to death on the inside or try to live in the mad max times on the outside!

@JohnOakman cuz they are slaves, its immoral

and now we have the left looking for an economic collapse. aka your starve option.

@Grenade123 look at concentration camps. A bowl of water, 3 carrots and that's it, work until death

@Aghost plenty of similar nonsense policy stances on the left. e.g., '**Stop having kids to save the environment!**' combined with '**We need more immigrants because our society is not having kids!**'

yes, but the concentration camps were not meant to really get labor out of them.

that is like labor in prison

it was used as punishment that had return on investment.

Ah man he rants perfectly.

@Atkins yeah... they just hate themselves a lot, and want the whole world to burn
