      As soon as they automate labour and violence, they won’t need the proletariat at all.

      And given how much they’ve cared for us historically, I think this should be raising much more concerns.

        A lot of people with no money, shelter, or food with lots of time on their hands should scare them more.

          Should, but doesn’t, because everyone is apathic as fuck and the rich have got private security and labour for them.

          And lots of people just don’t understand which side they’re on.

            How long is that private security going to last as they see their friends and family all suffer from what their bosses are doing?

            Just a thought.
