What will we do when the gap between the rich and the poor becomes bigger than ever due to automation?
How long will it be till most of the jobs will be fully automated?
What if the left wins and we get fucked in every way possible?

Isn't the right the ones trying to steal jobs from the left/poor?
You poor faggots needs to stop existing.
Automation is our way of telling you to kill yourself as you are no longer needed.
We will automate everything until there are no jobs for people without real skills and connections, and then proceed to kill off the useless population.
Left or right, 95% of you are useless scum that needs to be cleaned up yesterday. Not a single tear is shed for losers that were incapable of securing multi-generational wealth during the best time the western world saw after WW2.
I would like you to begin with explaining why an increasing gap between poor and rich would be a problem.
Please keep in mind that poor people these days have an electronic device in their pocket that allows them acces to nearly all information in the world.
They can even link it with their high definition 3d flatscreen TV.
t.poor faggot
All we need is a crash and all that multi-generational wealth is gonna be fucked, and either way its not gonna take long for people to start being arrested for wrongthink.
And corporations want a large populace to survive, there's a reason everyone wants to appeal to the chinese market,whose gonna buy carbonated shit water once 95% of the population can't afford the gas masks needed to breath through the smog?
There are multiple questions I'm asking, the left might win, they have the world by the balls, what are we gonna do when shit hits the fan?
The poorer you are, the dumber and easier to manipulate you are. Think about it, the internet is already in the process of being censored, it wont be long till those devices will be reduced to nothing more than a tabloid machine capable of playing candy crush and nothing more.
>We are living in an underwhelming cyberpunk dystopia
No, we're living in the prologue of cyberpunk. It's not bleak enough yet, and governments still have too much power relative to corporations for it to be cyberpunk. We can see if from where we're standing, but we're not there yet.
I guess you're right. I say 100 years at most till Goldstein McZion rules the world
The point is that the poor have never been richer. And their quality of life is only getting better.
Their kids can go to school instead of working in a factory and they won't freeze to death during the winter, so why should they care that the rich now have two private jets instead of one?
universal income, slavery or population reduction. choose your destiny
Upper to upper-middle class will keep moving to whiter, safer areas while the underclasses scurry in their favelas and ghettos, rioting and ripping eachother apart.
We will stay behind our fences with security guards and cameras, giving our condolences to their condition of being poor.
well, in that case you'd wanna be on the right side of the wall.
now, look busy and important and make sure your passport is up to date.
New jobs which require manual labor will pop up. Refer to every time people have gone "b-but muh automation" and been wrong since the early 1900s and further back.
Left side of the pic: Black ghetto
Right side of the pic: White-ish gated community
Can't fight the racial gap, It's biology.
I choose singularity, and speciation by way of war and socio-economic change
Its not just about starving to death, its about access to information and intellectual freedom.
It won't be long till we'll be FORCED to believe that girls can have penises, and so on, the only people who could have access to truth and speak their minds will be the rich fuckers
The middle class is only getting poorer tho, I reckon upper-middle class is fucked too
so population reduction
Tbfqh senpai, population reduction sounds good. One of the big reasons feudalism failed was because of the plague
Poor people earn money by
selling their children as a good source for upper class dining societies
I hope you have enough bullets for all 95% of us because we're going to tear you limb from limb. When people have nothing left to lose, they can do anything :)
>Refer to every time people have gone "b-but muh automation" and been wrong since the early 1900s and further back.
Just because retarded futurists have been memeing a flying cars future for too long doesn't mean that we aren't en route to a massive economic change. It'll come in waves of course, but its coming and sooner than people think.
The interesting part is that automation isn't blue collar vs white collar, its simply about whether or not your job is repetitive enough to be automated. Some jobs and tasks that are currently thought of as skilled are actually very repetitive and thus will be easy to automate.
here they come all the usa-israel fucktards claiming "poor people are just lazy"
you're gonna die zionist yankee fuck, Russia is going to erase you from the face of the earth, I'm telling you
I have a feeling the smell from the other side sometimes gets blown over to the rich side. Very little they can do about the smell.
Land drones cant do shit in combat (we are way too far from a fucking terminator movie) and it only takes some faggot with a CNC mill and youtube autocad skills to fucking arm the shit out of everyone.
>le progress is bad meme
Do you think the best AI ever created is going to be something known to the public?
thats when universal basic income kicks in. everything will be alright.
less humans spending 10 hours a day in factories.
more humans having the time to actually further advance the human race.
you guys should actually read more books and shit.
everything will be alright anons.
I just told you that we live in an age where the poor have an unprecedented acces to information.
Mainly due to them getting richer and richer.
And here you are, afraid that rich people will force cultural marxist values upon you so you start using marxist economic talking points to convince us to turn against them.
You seem very unstable and confused.
the only thing in the future that i can see myself really hating is going to be the lack of privacy.
>Sup Forums unironically worships the free market
disgusting
goldstein will have to control/censor the internet before that will happen.
Everyone interested in this subject please read Out of the Mountains by David Kilcullen.
>What will we do when the gap between the rich and the poor becomes bigger than ever due to automation?
Practice Eutelegenisis. Selectively breed offspring for intelligence/talent/health, with specially selected sperm donors, so they can get the best jobs, run the best businesses, program the best apps, make the best art, music, etc. And thus make the most money, and rise above the filth.
But to answer your question: violence.
When upward mobility is impossible, when working hard and doing your best won't change anything the lower strata of men will start to kill their competition.
Because its still poverty, they're not given the full benefits of modern civilization, still given the scraps. The poor are only fed as well as they are, and kept warm because it makes them less rebellious. They still don't receive the freedom of movement, healthcare, or education.
>Selectively breed offspring for intelligence/talent/health
Looks like white people are going extinct then
Name one problem that cannot be solved by a reduction in the worlds population.
But how long till that unprecedented access to information gets censored to hell?
its happening
I'm not saying progress is bad, I'm saying the people in charge of it are, you know, like the silicon valley freaks and the EU
I bet you think rich people all look like this.
No not at all, I think its more like the rich in Gattaca. Socially connected, slim and educated. You're not presenting an argument with that line of rebuttal.
My line of argument is that your argument sounds like a stereotypical caricature of evil capitalists made by communists and has almost nothing to do with reality.
ask the jew or ww1
Belgium McCarthyism - onabase?
I didn't even refer to the rich in my initial post so I can't comprehend why you would think I'm painting a "stereotypical caricature of evil capitalists".
Try harder?
At which point do you think someone will be rich enough to turn them in to agents of dystopian nightmares?
What is it about being rich that makes you want to censor facebook?
the idea is to make all human races 'extinct,' because they will be replaced by superior breeds in the future.
>McCarthyism
Fuck off commie Irish scum
> they're not given the full benefits of modern civilization, still given the scraps. The poor are only fed as well as they are, and kept warm because it makes them less rebellious.
Yeah, that totally doesn't sound as if you believe in historical dialectical materialism.
And hey, until now, i never used the word communist in this post, that means I definitely wasn't talking about communists!
Proving my fucking point.
Irish paddy cunt nigger
If y'all niggers actually understood communism, you'd know better than to expect utopia (automation & ubi). If you're from a relatively rich country you should work for the government. Capitalists need state regulation agencies to help them gain and maintain monopolies. Be the guy that inspects whether lumpenproles are falling in line with bullshit regulations. Capitalism creates an environment of eugenics through financial success. If you're poor, you're cleansed from the gene pool. If you don't want to be poor, you must work for the richest of the rich whether directly in the private sector or the public sector. In completely cucked countries like the US, there's zero risk of the capitalists losing. In Europe, there's a possibility unionized work will remain profitable for a long time in the future despite technological advancements.
>I hope you have enough bullets for all 95% of us because we're going to tear you limb from limb
US department of fatherland security bought 1,6 billion hollow point rounds illegal for war quite some time ago.
They're meant for domestic use.
Its not about them having money its about how they use it.
They become agents of dystopian nightmares once they use their influence to censor, misinform, propagandize and out right shut down access to information.
And I didn't say anything about wanting to censor facebook, the opposite actually. I think everyone should have the ability to speak their mind, regardless of the interests of anyone
Too bad facebook is currently censoring people in the interest of the corrupt gov and corporation s, same with google
>historical dialectical materialism
I wouldn't know as I've never read a thing from fucking Marx, I had to fucking google that word salad. I still don't see the point your trying to make with this whole Commie angle. My point wasn't that the rich should be made poorer but that the wealth gap should be smaller.
I get the feeling that this idea disgusts you perhaps because you're an elitist that wants people several rungs beneath you on the social ladder for the sake of your ego. Heathens forbid you should sit on the same table as some plebeian peasants hmm?
