This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

In the boring real world, AI will not replace humans, it'll just make the existing humans more efficient. Efficiency is usually a good thing, although there needs to be a fight against letting all the profits go to the most powerful.

Most of us dead from climate change and famine. The rest slaves for the corpos, tend their fields and robot repair facilities or die.

money stops representing labor and becomes worthless. if there's a universal basic income system with no jobs, then money is now a meal ration ticket within a planned economy.

I like to imagine there are two possible positive outcomes

  1. Just switch to communism or communist like
  2. They made such an effort to automate that now manufacturing is really cheap, and before they know it, people just buy local. Like imagine if you could run a hardware store with a metal 3d printer. Maybe you no longer need big brands

Oh wow.. Anon is the next Karl Marx. He independently figured out one of the contradictions of Capitalism defined by Marx. Congratulation comrade.
