    Socialism doesn’t just seem like a good idea, it’s pretty much the only possible future that doesn’t end up with 99% of humanity suffering horribly.

    The idea of everyone being able to work to make the means to survive has a rapidly approaching shelf life, most companies won’t employ humans over whatever tech is on the horizon as soon as it’s cheaper. The areas that remain habitable due to climate change will shrink

    I do not know why this isn’t treated as a more pressing issue

      It’s strange isn’t it? It ‘seems obvious’ but there’s such resistance, and not just from those who benefit from the status quo.

        Just like religion, a bunch of people associate their work with their identity. If you remove the work, you threaten their identity and that is frightening.

        That and some are just millionaires waiting to happen any day now.
