According to the parent commenter Marxism 101 is to treat humans like pitiful cogs that need to do the same shit work over and over and over. I’m a leftist but I think peoples quality of living is much more than a good wage. Automating certain shitty jobs can free up spend for giving other more fulfilling jobs a better wage.
- prepend 5y agoI think the solution to that is to just put robots in place of “pitiful cogs.” I think it’s quite depressing to keep humans in pointless roles. I was once a security guard and it’s terrible work. So boring. The pay was crap. Of course, I would have liked more pay. But I was much happier getting a different, better job, than even doubling my pay.
