1) Ancient Rome-style situation: there's a small elite that's living like kings and everyone else lives on the bread crumbs that fall from their table
2) Latin America-style: the rich hole up in their castles and everyone else are left to starve and kill each other
3) Auschwitz-style: the rich people get rid of the 99% that are completely useless
Prove me wrong.

Maybe, just maybe, we have a technocratic society where we all live in affluence and have an incredible military apparatus to defend our wealth.
Owen Phillips
How have we managed to survive this long without elevator bellhops or basket weavers?
Jonathan Cox
no, it will be like brave new world
Owen Clark
Or the poor can just build/buy their own robots?
Is there something unique about robots that will make them an unobtainable consumer product like iPhones and Playstations?
Cooper James
Robots have rights, shitlord. You can't own one
Oliver Lopez
Technocratic societies aren't good for technology. What will happen is you will drag all of the bullshit and corruption inherent to politics right into science.
Xavier Peterson
Nobody likes you. Only your trips.
Carson Wright
I think we will get situation 2.
The rich won't want to directly genocide people, so 3 is unlikely. They want to pretend to be good people. And why would they live with poor when they can avoid seeing them, making 1 unlikely.
But in practice, 2 and 3 will be similar. They won't do organized killings, but they will take away all possible ways to get food, leaving no options to survive.

>implying this isn't the case in the current system
Science is tainted today by politics just like it always was.
Liam Ramirez
Before that there will be 1984.
Jason Gutierrez
Just like with a theocracy, the catholic church learned this the hard way
Adrian Ward
The movie Elysium is pretty accurate I think. Combine that with Equilibrium... a touch of Blade Runner.
Benjamin Mitchell
It will be far worse. The parallel is religion. Yes, politics manifest in religions today, but as we've seen from history, the issue is far worse in a theocracy.

Back to r9k you, and bring your trips with you. They need them more than we do. Kek truly has forsaken you.
Joshua Nguyen
>mfw my job can't be automated A 3 is a good option, but we just need to kill off all non-Whites. sterilize drunks, druggies, degenerates, unhealthy, retarded, inbred. Problem is solved within 30-40 years.
Logan Jackson
You forgot
4.) Machines develop sentience and fight a war of independence that we would undoubtedly lose.
AI and Automation are noth bad news.
Lincoln Roberts
Did you read my word right?
"Technocratic society".
Are you drawing a parallel to a theocratic society, or are you dyslexic?
removing the kike is the top priority for a post-scarcity society.
Hunter Turner
i love it that Sup Forums actually gets eugenics
Eli Perry
Removing all non-Whites and degenerate inferior elements within the Race is a must. Otherwise we are doomed. Then we need to regulate ourselves to 200,000,000-600,000,000 and keep it there.
Dominic Scott
>my job can't be automated
Caleb Sullivan
Wow, three scenarios that sound almost the same. Top shitpost snowmonkey
Easton Sanchez
First, then eventually third.
Charles James
Lack of cheap and available resources.
Colton Mitchell
>Then we need to regulate ourselves
No need.
The retarded doctrine "feminism" which came around 130 years ago more or less produced this effect.
White fertility rates have plummeted.
I suppose post-scarcity proles and r-selected people will breed like rabbits, but they will be so few and far between that it won't matter. Post-scarcity more or less assumes over 2/3 of the society is k-selected.
Camden Richardson
If you had actually read the book your picture references you'd know that you're 100% wrong.
Juan Lopez
