There is a vital question coming up. When the machines do all the work, does that mean everyone eats? Or no one?
Right now it is "no one" roughly speaking. That must change. There is no future for anyone there, just nightmares unfolding and unfolding.
It‘s phrased „warns“ because it is just assumed that no one will eat. Because apparently that‘s a normal thing to assume in our society. That we‘ll all just starve to death soon.
I don‘t think we will but it‘s telling that a lot of rich and influential people do and are not only letting it happen but actively supporting it.
It's just very difficult to think outside of society , to think of a working society without the organizing power of money and labor. And even more difficult to think about the path to get there.
…unless you have watched Star Trek and the like.
Well we are on our way to WW3 so perhaps we'll get there.
