I'm pretty logged into leftist currents and I'm pretty sure this strain of thought isn't as popular as this article makes it seem.
> “fully automated luxury communism"
This is literally a meme (a pretty dank one in my opinion). Its provokes thought and laughs more than enunciates a political program.
- doener 9y agoYes, it is a meme. But my feeling is that the idea behind it is quite popular on the internet: https://www.theguardian.com/sustainable-business/2015/mar/18/fully-automated-luxury-communism-robots-employment https://www.theguardian.com/sustainable-business/2015/mar/18...
- danharaj 9y agoThat article cites the very same person the submission does! Popularity on the Internet is a subtle thing, especially in the realm of leftist memes. There's certainly a "haha only serious" flippancy to it.
