“We’re going to need the help of robots and other forms of, uhhh, I guess you could say employment,” he said, shrugging. “We’re going to be employing a lot of artificial things.”
When was the last time he ranted coherently? 95?
I hope this was his last merry Christmas. I hope we’re getting close to his Mussolini ending
Wasn’t Mussolini ripped apart by his constituents?
And hung for public viewing. I mean we all know maga is feral so 🤞🏼
this is not technology
Yeah… it is. It doesn’t matter if you think it’s good or bad, it’s technology.
I think they’re referring to the political article and the community within which it has been posted, not that AI isn’t technology.

More people are working right now in the United States than at any other time in our history.
The same can be said year on year every single year (except 2020) due to population and economic growth.
What he doesn’t say is that the divergence between the average wage and the cost of living has never been greater. So, while more people are available to work, they are earning less per hour in bread and bricks than they were 5, 10, 15, 20 (etc.) years ago.
Either put him in a home or in the ground. I don’t care which, but for the love of god, take away his Internet access.
Then we get Vance. Whooo!
Better now than in a few years after they’ve prepared him.
what is the actual rate of unemployment within the technology industry? surely it’s higher than any of the numbers that are being reported by the government.
if I run out of money before finding a job, I’m killing myself
Everything is higher than the government reports.
Trump fired the guy that reported the unemployment numbers for reporting accurate numbers. I assume everything since is propaganda.
It was propaganda before, it didn’t include people who were working a handful of hours and unable to support themselves and unemployed who said they weren’t actively seeking a job.
Trump’s issue wasn’t that it was intentionally deceptive, only that the lies weren’t far enough from reality.
My parents aren’t much younger than him and every time he speaks I worry for their health.
Did your parents do insane amounts of coke, rape children and utterly ignore their health in pursuit of porkish hedonism? Then go for high stress bullshit with a family history of dementia?
And do they also have late stage syphilis? Why is nobody talking about that one, it’s obvious. The patchy hair loss, the blemishes, the cognitive decline, the bizarre thick facial makeup. You know why the French covered their faces and hands with that thick white lead based paint back in the 1700s and wore wigs? Because of syphilis.
It fits the timeline perfectly if you consider how he was living in the 80’s-90’s, and how obviously he would never go have it checked out because he’s a narcissistic piece of dumb shit.
(It also tangentially explains Trump’s bizarre emotional affiliation with the late great Alphonse Capone)
I guess we’ll know when his nose goes.
Fun fact: we can even cure late stage syphilis nowadays. Well, eradicate it from the body. The damage it caused will persist. Including cognitive.
Don’t forget eating almost exclusively fast food so that nobody can poison your meals.
That’s honestly probably the most rational thing he does.
Not that I’m aware of…
I’d say he’s not a good metric then.
This dumb fucking child rapist
I believe man and fish can peacefully coexist!
They want artificial employees to discipline the labor market but what they will get instead is a deskilled labor force and business structures that are even more resistant to adaptation.
I love it when they follow Trump’s name with his age. Fuck the gerontocracy
Would socialism and collectivism help empower youth?
no. The US will still be as dumb and as divided as before.
What about using force?
In Minecraftthen you deserve someone like trump.
There is no “-ism” that can save the US anymore
They need a revolution and a new system. More than two parties and limits on presidential power
multipartyism
What about the principles of Karl Marx and Vladimir Lenin?
It doesn’t work on a large scale because people with Cluster B personality disorders will always corrupt any system we come up with.
And historically those systems are typically structured in a way that allows authoritarianism and dictators to take over more quickly. The government has to control everything, which creates a much smaller point of failure.
Capitalism is a shit system, but it took ~200 years to corrupt to this point because the power is more distributed (at first).
The only Solution is artificial president. We gonna need more of them
Have some self-respect. Don’t feed The Daily Beast.
I blocked /c/politics over this, but it seems like none of the big .world communities care about tabloid sourced/clickbait headlines.
And, unfortunately, clickbait works. They always float up to the top of Active.
It’s the only one reporting what he said
When reached for comment, White House Deputy Press Secretary Anna Kelly told the Daily Beast in a statement, “It’s sad that Daily Beast interns cannot grasp the concept of pro-growth policies that create jobs. Their minds are clearly warped after cheering on Joe Biden as he wrecked our economy for four years.”
The pettiness is unreal.
This is not “pettiness”. This is all part of a multi-generational psychological warfare operation to brainwash the working class and implement totalitarian dictatorship — started by the Koch Bros, Roger Ailes, Rupert Murdoch, and other wealthy narcissists several decades ago — and the fascists are winning; facilitated by “liberals” who are mostly a manufactured opposition, financed by the same corporations/oligarchs.
No war but class war, and the capitalist class is winning.
The rhetoric that politicians are idiots and they don’t know what they’re doing is also damaging, because it makes people assume stupidity rather than malice.
But it is malice. The incompetence is real, make no mistake, but malice is in fact the end goal.
The rhetoric that all politicians are corrupt and evil is also extremely damaging, and is parroted strictly by conservatives and the daft-right who then go on voting for the most corrupt and evil ones every time.
When profits are involved, always assume malice.
The only time you should assume stupidity is when dealing with family, friends, colleagues, frontline workers, etc; basically anyone you interact with who wouldn’t profit off the malice (eg the sales person or marketing team will lie to make a sale).
Never believe that anti-Semites [read: fascists] are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.

Rest in piss indeed
I’d say educational system, or better, it’s downfall through decades, plays a significant role in making population dumb enough to not see through these constant lies.
It’s easy to control sheep. Machiaveli wrote a literal guidebook in the 1500s. If you dumb them down and destroy free thought, you can rule as you see fit.
The multigenerational operation directly involves the defunding of, and attacks on, education. This isn’t a this or that situation. ALL conservative and neoliberal policy since the 1970’s is about destroying ALL socialist/liberal/democratic advances made to date, and returning the working class to ignorant destitution; much easier to control and brainwash mentally-ill morons (see MAGA).
It feels like some edgelord 4chan trolls have taken over the government
4chan played a non-insignificant part in getting MAGA in power. It always attracted throngs of alt-right morons who dominated the political discourse. Back when nazis were afraid to speak about their beliefs in public, the Internet quickly became their breeding ground and base of operations. They got in very early, and were always very good at dominating and influencing online sentiment.
Exactly what happened. What are we going to do about it? I plan to create a self-sustainability community to at least drain their leverage a bit.
Do you think anyone could shoot her an email asking for comments on shit?
This is sleepy Joe’s fault. I know it.
Boomers in the 1980s: “Those damn robots took our darn jorbs”
Trump in 2025: “We’re giving these jorbs to the robots”
Id love to give robots my job, if all my needs were met and I could do art all day.
Of course, what it actually means is none of my needs will be met and I will be put into a private prison or an incinerator.
I don’t understand people who hope for help from the government in our times, because we are like a rag for it, with which it wipes its snot and throws it in the garbage.
You will continue to labor all day for reduced pay, while the robot pretends to do art all day
They will outsource our leisure time to the robots so that we can stay at work forever, and the robots stay at home and fuck our wives.
Reduced pay? If the rich get their way, we’re going to be chattel slaves. They hate us so much and are so disgusted with us, even the worst wage slavery is too good for us.
They’ll kill off the unclean and disabled in mass exterminations, enslave us for a time while/if their ai gets good enough, and eventually when robots are good enough to replace even slaves, the rich will hunt us for sport and do coloseum games on us.
People really underestimate how fucking awful the ruling class is. They are wicked, despicable people who genuinely think anything above slavery and bowing to them is too good for us poors.
Unfortunately, you are right, it is a pity that so few people understand this, we have a very sad future, although to be honest, we have no future.
There is a word for the future you are describing: exterminism.
Sadly the world appears to be heading that way. This is the most bleak future described in one of my favorite books- Four Futures:Life After Capitalism
It’s a quick read . .and highly recommended. https://www.versobooks.com/en-gb/products/59-four-futures
I’ll check it out!
I literally see no other future. Its not possible.
Really sad for kids born today.
They will go to the landfill to get their food.
Unless WE give the robots some rather interesting military jobs first.
I have no mouth, but I must scream.
Would not even need an AM to do that to some people {=
They have much debt to pay, oh so much.
109 years is not nearly enough, is it?
Hmm?
Hmm, what about debts that ordinary people have been paying for thousands of years without even knowing it?
And this will benefit the average worker by giving him more free time while keeping his job and salary, right?
