Most critiques of automation are critiques of the economic system, which most certainly isn't capitalism today but every economic system that forces their workers to work to receive food and shelter at the barrel of an existential gun. It doesn't meet the objective definition of capitalism, and its quite trite blaming failures along propaganda lines. Capitalism can't technically exist without a stable store of value, you have to be able to make a profit in purchasing power and that simply isn't possible under certain systems. Free-markets also can't exist under money-printing for the exact same reason. There are parasites that drive everyone else out of business and then collapse during the final stage of ponzi. Sieving all assets into few hands that can then be seized by government is communism. What you pretend to be capitalism is in fact socialism, and like most socialist issues these systems create the problems, claim its something else, and then put forth solutions that are not solutions but enable greater control towards totalism. In other words, shock doctrine. That path leads to extinction while trying to drag everyone else along for the ride. Its quite evil, and its inevitable when you have those elements present and you can see that if you think along rational principles based in external measure/reality. Most civilizations never make it beyond a certain point. You don't stay alive by ignoring reality.
