Go ahead and do it. Let's see how their precious AI datacenters compete against the Molotov cocktails of the unemployed.
Unless there's a plan to prevent poverty as a result of mass unemployment, there will be another Luddite movement.
For what it's worth, the original Luddite movement was 100% right. They were slandered as being irrationally afraid of technology, when the reality is that they valued human outcomes over corporate profits, and didn't take well to being replaced by machines.
Let's just hope the next Luddite movement isn't defeated the same way the original Luddite movement was defeated (by murdering the Luddites). There's a growing attitude in America right now to rid society of exploitive ruling class elites. I foresee a "let them eat cake" moment coming soon.
- c0redump 2y ago> a growing attitude.. to rid society of.. elites No there isn’t. We just collectively elected a billionaire real estate developer from NYC to be our president. He’s friends with other members of the ownership class, and has demonstrated, before even taking office, that their elite interests are far more important than those of the average American. I guess I can see why you’d think this because of the UHC killing, but you need to zoom out and see the big picture. We are headed full throttle towards oligarchy and plutocracy, while the masses cheer gleefully.
- RIMR 2y agoJust take a visit to Reddit's r/conservative. They may have elected this guy, but they are absolutely not on board with the billionaire class replacing us with machines. I don't really know why they voted for him, but it wasn't for this.
