Who could have possibly foreseen this? /s

It's almost like when these AI CEOs constantly tell their investors how they're going to make everyone homeless and jobless, then all the workers start taking them seriously and seeing them as the threat that they are.

As I have posted before:

There are only 2 ways the worker-capitalist contradiction can ever be solved:

  • communism, where the abundant fruits of automation are distributed evenly among all, ala fully automated luxury communism
  • exterminism (from Peter Frase’s book Four Futures), where the capitalists finally fulfill their dream of automating everything and can genocide all the unneeded workers.

It’s quite important we bring about revolution before option 2 becomes viable.

Stephen "Peewee Himmler" Miller has said that he wants to reduce the population to 100 million. That's about a 70% reduction from our current 335 million.

Imagine his plans for achieving that objective.

    There are 200 million "pure white Americans" in the USA. He can't actually get to his 100 million number by just genociding every non-white person in America. He would have to genocide the bottom half of poor white Americans too.
