“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.”
“Trump, Old Fuck, Rants Incoherently About Some Random Topic” is one of the most tiring headlines.
When was the last time he ranted coherently? 95?
hate him or hate him, he’s got inside info and can’t wait to share it. GG, humanity.
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.
AI is technology. An old man rambling about nonsense is not technology. If he was rambling about blueberry pie that wouldn’t make this a cooking article.
Good point.
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!
At least Vance is so uncharismatic that if he even thought about pulling the shit trump does the maga base would eat him alive
Better now than in a few years after they’ve prepared him.
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)
Fun fact: we can even cure late stage syphilis nowadays. Well, eradicate it from the body. The damage it caused will persist. Including cognitive.
I guess we’ll know when his nose goes.
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.
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.
I feel like “the job market sucks so hard that I gave up looking” definitely should be included in the report if it’s supposed to be any real indication of economic health
This dumb fucking child rapist
I believe man and fish can peacefully coexist!
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).
Depends on when you consider the corruption of the wealthy came in. The Civil War was fought over slavery and it was because rich land barons in the south didn’t want to have workers they paid anything to. So they also greased government hands to try and keep it. So the rot set in quickly, it just took longer to metastasize.
Capitalism is a shit system, but it took ~200 years to corrupt to this point because the power is more distributed (at first).
The US is reaching the average lifespan of an Empire. Capitalism has not been particularly good at preventing collapse, it has been about average.
It’s not just the US; we’re just speed running the end while the western world follows behind.
US exceptionalism once again.
“We’re not shit, everyone is shit! But we’re better at being shit than everyone else!”
Okay then.
The only Solution is artificial president. We gonna need more of them
Yeah, then we can have President Grok whose opinion can be changed by whomever touches the code.
The only thing worse than a person whose opinion changes based on the last person they talk to, is an AI whose opinion changes based on what oligarch or employee was able to sneak something into the model/code.
no. The US will still be as dumb and as divided as before.
What about using force?
In Minecraftthen you deserve someone like trump.
Why?
You want a leader that dominates the country using force. Well congrats you got that leader its Trump. You dont get to pick between democracy and authoritarianism when it suits you.
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.
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
RIPP?
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.
Yup, and I was almost one of them. Can take a while to deprogram oneself. It literally took me being exposed to the wide world out of their little microcosim of understanding and rhetoric to see they were putting 2+2=9. Add in the neo-liberals who cozy up with them when anyone with a hint of progressivism gets popular or change is on the horizon. Then saying stuff like “they can still learn and understand.”
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?
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
