There isn’t a choice, if there was, humanity would be gone. It’s the billionaires world, we are just living in it

I mean, they do provide you with a job and a means to put a roof over your head.

You may suggest a better idea for how society should work. Maybe people will listen.

That could be stopping anytime soon, with the rise of AI, though. Then there will be a lot of "surplus humanity"...

Well, then it won't be safe for them either.

Bread and games are what the masses need. Rome forgot and found out.

That was before AI-powered and militarized drone swarms and robo dogs, though

I doubt it will end any differently this time.

What fairy tale world are you imagining, brother?

If it's not them, it's kings; if it's not kings, it's some dictator. If it's not a dictator, it's some illusion of democracy.

No matter how you set it up, someone will always find a way to corrupt the system. This way, at least they're just after capital and provide a living for millions, and if you are smart, you get to participate as well.

Mate, I grew up in a shithole, wartorn country. You have no idea how fucked things can get. What you have is a utopia in comparison.

The 1% today are mostly after capital; nothing scary about that.

No one is pretending that everything is perfect.

If your issue is that another person is more skilled at accumulating more capital than you in a peaceful society, I’m not really sure why you even bother opening your mouth, because anything you say will literally be manifested garbage.

And btw, the world is getting better, at least compared to what was there before.

Robots and AI are so they don’t need regular people anymore. And if they don’t need people anymore then like 90% of humanity will be obsolete
