Precaritise was a word to learn. OP used it a few times and it is a capsule summary of his prognosis. Recommend Foucault's treatment of control to understand the significant difference between ad-hoc bs-ing and systemic and centralized mechanized bs-ing. That said, frankly the distinction should be obvious.

I thought this was a fair attempt at giving us a hypothetical looksee:

To generalize that, consider this social model: As the power classes globalize, a form of auto-colonization will occur, mirroring the technological power imbalance between colonizers and the colonized.
- ajuc 4y agoBS jobs were a consequence of peak productivity+cultural insistence on working 8 hours a day 5 days a week. They will go away, doesn't matter if it's AI or demographic collapse that kills them first. Class warfare assumes you have lots of demand and lots of potential productivity and the bottleneck is the capital. It's a consequence of eternal population growth assumption that's simply not true anymore. If you ignore that all your conclusions will be false. Demography matters. Our future will be labor- and demand-constrained, not capital-constrained. It will have more in common with the world after Black Death, than with the industrial revolution. Marxism is as relevant today as Malthusian trap = not at all. > As the power classes globalize Why would they? We're deglobalizing pretty quickly for the last few years and it's going to accelerate.
