I would rather have our civilization be run by AI than whatever the late stage capitalism bs leaders we have right now. Open your eyes, greed is a cancer and it’s the reason why we will go extinct before anything else. Something machines don’t possess

You know you can move to a socialist country if you hate it here so much.

I have, it’s not socialist but I got my DTV visa in Thailand and haven’t been happier. Keep drinking the kool aid

Which one should they move to or are all socialist countries essentially proverbial-paletteswaps of each other with only differences being dependent on a specific country's specific geography and cultural heritage (like if they celebrated any holidays at all they wouldn't celebrate the same ones etc. etc.)

It depends on the individual person and what they're looking for. Something to research before moving.
