Sure, I agree with that. However, we also need to consider what a “net decrease in productivity” actually means for the population as a whole, and whether it’s something we want to accept as a trade-off for more free time.

Skill issue. You know turns exist, right? Just hire two turns of people who work 3 days a week, and bam! You cover 6 weeks of work. Heck, you are hiring more people so you are creating more employment!

And that’s all even before machines and AI completely replace the need for that work, anyway.

Pfff that’s coward numbers. I’ll do you one better:

We should get a 3-day work week.

Because the working class is apparently too lazy and coward for it.

Crafting a guillotine is not even that hard compared to most of the compromises taken. You don’t even need to build it up to code: if it has issues, it still gets the job done just cause extra pain to the burgeois that goes into it.

Similarly all those *thousands* of people who are parading up in complain to Trump could easily walk into the White House and solve the problem by themselves. Instead, they are content on just “I was here”-ing for a photo.

One thing the last elections convinced me of: at some point, people at large just want to be let be evil.

My sources indicate that, as a natural intelligence, I can recommend feeling awesome.

I’m only three (3) active (and hopefully semi/official) communities away from ditching r/ and moving completely to c/; for most of everything else I’ve found quite sufficient activity on Lemmy + Mastodon. Alas, since “representatives moving their community to lemmy” is not the kind of stuff you can enhance yourself unless you are an admin of those, I’m stuck on waiting.

Wait, it works for you, too?

“You’re doin’ it wrong, hooman.”

Capitalism shows that it does indeed work! Just not for the average us.

So yeah, a metaphor for capitalism.

We’ve both looked into the abyss. But when the abyss stared back at us, you went woosa good kitten yes u aaaaaaa

With how costly that turd was, you should have saved it and put it on display somewhere.
