“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.”

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.

I hope this was his last merry Christmas. I hope we’re getting close to his Mussolini ending

[–] boaratio@lemmy.world 14 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Wasn't Mussolini ripped apart by his constituents?

"Trump, Old Fuck, Rants Incoherently About Some Random Topic" is one of the most tiring headlines.

[–] FriendOfDeSoto@startrek.website 210 points 4 days ago (3 children)

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.

[–] WhatAmLemmy@lemmy.world 148 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (4 children)

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.

[–] dukemirage@lemmy.world 30 points 4 days ago (7 children)

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.

I love it when they follow Trump's name with his age. Fuck the gerontocracy

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 135 points 4 days ago (2 children)

I wish he'd fucking die already

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.

[–] Stern@lemmy.world 79 points 4 days ago (11 children)

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.

Boomers in the 1980s: "Those damn robots took our darn jorbs"

Trump in 2025: "We're giving these jorbs to the robots"

[–] Phegan@lemmy.world 66 points 4 days ago (7 children)

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.

[–] 4am@lemmy.zip 45 points 4 days ago (4 children)

You will continue to labor all day for reduced pay, while the robot pretends to do art all day

[–] nforminvasion@lemmy.world 18 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (6 children)

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.

[–] 4am@lemmy.zip 1 points 6 hours ago

You’re not wrong; the problem is too many people refuse to see it. They think it’s conspiracy theory or exaggeration.

[–] BeardededSquidward@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

They're already openly talking about a techno-feudalist state in the USA. The rich are a blight, and until people realize that we'll continue to lose.

[–] nforminvasion@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

They are literally comically evil, it would silly if it wasn't reality.

This dumb fucking child rapist

[–] Rhoeri@piefed.world 19 points 3 days ago (4 children)

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.

My parents aren't much younger than him and every time he speaks I worry for their health.

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 12 points 3 days ago (7 children)

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?

This implies that sometimes he rants coherently which is not true.

Have some self-respect. Don't feed The Daily Beast.

[–] brucethemoose@lemmy.world 19 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

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.

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.
