“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.”
The pictures on the stands looks like … no look exactly like the boxes of the Revell model kits
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.
Old man yells at clouds!
I love it when they follow Trump’s name with his age. Fuck the gerontocracy
Would socialism and collectivism help empower youth?
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).
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.
You will continue to labor all day for reduced pay, while the robot pretends to do art all day
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.
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
They will go to the landfill to get their food.
Unless WE give the robots some rather interesting military jobs first.
And this will benefit the average worker by giving him more free time while keeping his job and salary, right?
Finally a headline that correctly describes the situation.
I wish he’d fucking die already
It doesn’t matter if Trump dies, horribly or not, the energy that got Trump elected is still there in the American culture, and the next time it rears its head it’ll be a lot more competent and far more vicious.
I need him to stay alive and receive punishment, impeachment and incarceration for all his crimes before he kicks the bucket…this fascist, racist, felon, clown fuck
Soon enough. You can see the way he is aging. It seems to be accelerating.
Then we’d have President Vance and first Mistress Kirk. This cancer is going to take a while to cut out if it doesn’t outright kill us.
Cult leaders need charisma and couchfucker ain’t got it. He might end out pres in that hypothetical but he wouldn’t have the implied maga threat behind him Trump does so I think he’d get a lot less of the agenda pushed.
He also race mixed which will cause some infighting that I feel will be as enjoyable as NYE fireworks 👌
(i have no problems there, but they sure as hell do, lmao)
He also race mixed
If you’re going by Nazi standards, Vance’s wife is a lower Aryan, and Trump is the race mixer with his subhuman Slavic whores.
If you’re going by traditional American WASP standards, none of them are white.
So their “fuck immigrants” is foremost literal ? (asking for a friend)
I thought they meant his mom was a sofa.
Indian is lower Aryan surely you jest?
This is a great example of the conversational fire that one may stoke 👍
Vance doesn’t need Trump’s cult, he doesn’t need to win any elections. He’s the chosen figurehead for the Catholic neo-feudalists that are using Trump to take over, and is already in place to succeed.
Again, R’s aren’t scared of Vance, they absolutely believe Trump can throw down a “Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?” on Truth social. That translates to shit getting pushed back on a lot more for Vance.
I don’t think they are Catholic nice try tho 🧃.
Jd will not be nearly as bad as Trump. Stop pretending it’s the same thing.
Vance is Thiel’s puppet. He’ll definitely be worse.
He’s got worse policies in a lot of ways, but he’s also so uncool that even the diehard fasc think he’s useless
I wish Biden was still president.
This comment is grosser than your name. Biden has been a shitheel in government for over 50 years.
He was one of the best presidents since Jimmy Carter and the country and the world would be better off with him in power vs Trump.
That just goes to show how bad the US is at electing leaders. Just terrible, even when good options do exist, to the point that I still don’t fully believe Mamdani is the New York Mayor.
That’s because he’s not until January 1, 2026.
That probably does something to it as well, but ok then change it to “I can’t believe that he was actually elected”.
It’s because when you put a piece of ripe fruit into raw sewage it doesn’t make the sewage suddenly drinkable, but suddenly I no longer want to eat the fruit. But hey with enough fruit and time that makes a farm, idk I’m trying to be positive here. Forget aboutit
Ah I see you got that boomer brain.
Does that mean you’re happy with the way Trump is handling things?
Trump being horrendous in every way doesn’t erase Biden, Obama and the like being bad leaders who preserve the status quo.
I would love to have Biden, Obama or Harris leading the country right now.
Does it make you happy that the stairway to trump was every stupid fucking politician and policy you voted for?
Didn’t your mother teach you that it’s rude to dodge a question and ask one of your own instead?
Answer mine and I’ll put the time into answering yours.
He should be shot on 5th Ave like a dog.
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.
It feels like some edgelord 4chan trolls have taken over the government
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.
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.
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.
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’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.
Do you think anyone could shoot her an email asking for comments on shit?
This implies that sometimes he rants coherently which is not true.
I am once again begging people not to post a headline that starts with “Trump, 79,” that doesn’t end with. Well. You know.
beginning of this headline got my hopes up that he finally croaked. fuckers.
To think Trump 1.0 was an improvement over this shit show.
Trump 1.0 he was actually there still, easily manipulated but still there. Now he’s just a puppet with dementia.
Nah, 1.0 was only better because he spent the whole time figuring out wtf to do. He didn’t even know he had to hire his own cabinet. 2.0 is the result of those four years of realizing the power and protection of the position, and another four of teams of knowledgeable people working hard to make sure this term would be the last they’d ever need.
It’s less that he personally learned anything and more that the Heritage Foundation did, he’s only following their playbook.
Yes…that’s what I said…
Trump is nothing more than an incoherent buffoon. How long can he be propped up and worshipped like this? To the majority of Europeans, doing business with the US is considered far too untrustworthy. Our elected officials know this because we make it clear. Sadly, we too have buffoons arising and gaining power here. If they to get in, we are all fucked.
Nobody in the AI industry, tech, or government cares. He says all the buzzwords and gives them all what they want. What he says is basically irrelevant at this point. Until something actually happens we’re all gonna read about some sort of “gotcha” moment every day as if it makes a difference so we can have our rage moments and move on after we get our dopamine hit by calling him a moron.
Not talking shit on anyone here, I’m just tired. And I’m tired of seeing a similar headline day after day as if it changes anything.
