I hate to say it but I agree. Flashy phrases like "automating poverty" or "weaponized through technology" just distract me and make me feel like the author is trying too hard to present the horror of technology. The article was very weak on content. For example, the antidote about the man who died - he started getting thinner and he died. So nothing else you can add? - did he try to contact someone? what period of time did he have no benefits?
There is no surprise here. Every aspect of life will become more automated and reliant on technology. Of course anything involving human safety (healthcare, benefits) has to account for possible problems in the system. There has to be some type of support where you can talk to a human. This is something that should be debated. The author had plenty of provocative information without resorting to this writing style.
