I really love being accused of veering into supernatural territory by people in an actual cult. Not random people on hexbear but actual, real life techbros. Simultaneously lecturing me about my supposed anti-physicalism while also harping on about “the singularity”.
It was actually pretty funny. I was interviewing a guy running an illegal aircraft charter operation when he went off on this rant about FAA luddites. I then personally shut down his operation. I guess techbros aren’t used to being told “no.”
Again shows that atheism without dialectical materialism is severly lacking and tend to veers into weird idealist takes, especially for the agnostics which aren’t even atheist just seeks the superstition that would fit them.
Yeah, though i also notice how many of the smug “freelancers” of the type that always enthusiastically joined the bourgeoisie in sneering at workers losing their jobs because “you can’t automate creativity and we are creative unlike you dirty proles” suddenly cry about losing their comissions, bash people pointing it and demand help from the unions they always hated. It exactly confirms what Marx and Lenin said about proletarisation of the artisans and petty burgies, and i know enough of them to feel some schadenfreude on both personal and systemic levels.
Old tale actually, maybe it will give some of them some class consciousness, as it apparently already did to a lot of the creative wage workers, judging from the strikes. And speaking of strikes, idk how the unions portray this - do they try to actually put it in political context of capitalism or just went with “let’s turn back the clock”?
That is, if someone treat it as binary “either eat elon shit or take the clogs in your hands” problem. Actually dismissing or rejecting it entirely is literally a neoludditism, though admittedly the problem is of lesser magnitude than the original one since it’s more of a escalation than entire new quality, but it won’t go away, the world will have to live with it.
Only it’s not the “free and accessible” period now that was for like 3 months, we are already on “until it isn’t” time where the free ones don’t really work anymore and you need to register for everything and any useful usage require payment.

I see a lot of potential there for the proletariat, but at the minimum, in capitalism, it would require some really free and accessible tool.
