Date: January 26th, 2026 2:25 PM Author: Yummy Phase Pol Pot Technology has advanced such that a critical mass of human labor has been removed from the economic equation. With high speed internet and smart phone technology being the final nail in the coffin.
People look at Minneapolis and say "wtf is going on here, how can all of these people be doing this shit?" It's because there is simply not enough productive work to go around.
I think on some level the elites know this and use ICE / "Wedge Issue of the Day" to keep people preoccupied and distracted from the deeper issue at hand. |

Date: January 26th, 2026 2:33 PM Author: Yummy Phase Pol Pot Maybe so, but the problem was temporarily fixed post-WW2 thanks to cheap oil and a consumer spending-driven economy that enabled the growth of a huge number of industries that could employ surplus workers (especially women.)
But the combination of technological advancements (IT, automation) and rising cost of material inputs (on a global per capita basis) destroyed all of that.
Elites' solutions have been endless debt issuance coupled with mass distraction events (Covid, Ukraine, now this.)
Optimistically (lol), I think things will actually chill out considerably in time. If for no other reason than populations are shrinking. But it's going to be a painful ride through the bottleneck. |

Date: January 26th, 2026 2:34 PM Author: Yummy Phase Pol Pot I agree. I think this feeling undergirds everything at the moment. It is another reason why it often feels like everyone is halfassing their job. We were not meant to live like this. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5826956&forum_id=2...id.#49620789) |

Date: January 26th, 2026 2:34 PM Author: henpecked conservadork wifeguy girldad It's the lack of Malthusian pressures which is the root cause of what you're describing (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5826956&forum_id=2...id.#49620790) |
