Ah yeah, double think
Winning the popular vote is being unpopular
Winning the election is losing the election
Not voting for Trump is voting for Trump
War is peace
Freedom is slavery
There are not 4 lights, but 5 lights
The stunlock continues and intensifies
Lol no. Studies have been done about this. The average voter doesn't give five shits if the candidate is a man or a woman.
3 chances at guessing what the average voter cares about.
Hint: it's not gender policies, pronouns or social culture wars
As long as you need those "Rock chewing stupid" people to win an election, and you keep thinking of them as such, you will KEEP losing elections
Those "rock chewing stupid" people are LITERALLY American workers. You know, the people that for good or bad keep the country running?
And then democrats have the gall to call themselves the party of the worker man.
Pathetic
The perma stun proceeds at pace
Ironic
Imagine having 4 years to prepare
With all the state apparatus behind them announcing day and night that Trump was "literally the worst human bean ever"
Basically all the universities and all the highly educated population by their side
With massive approval from their voter base
With huge sums of money for propaganda in the private media.
With all the considerably large powers of the current executive
Able to pass laws
Able to influence worldwide political movements to bash their opposition at any time through grants
Able to start or stop wars worldwide should the need arise
And they still lost to Trump LMAO 🤣
So, civ v was right, the only thing that saves us from the bureaucracy, is its inefficiency.
Isn't this like the whole SCRUM framework
Nothing wrong, actually a big promoter, the thing is, the people who complain a lot about:
-not having enough jobs
-salary being too low
If you add automation to the mix, a lot of the people complaining about it will have to, sooner or later, face the reality that a lot of clerical work can be automated leaving large swats of the population who never realized they needed to re-skill, in a job market that for them looks unpredictable.
In this particular case, maybe about 80% of these jobs might be automated in the near future, which will also collapse the idea that, for government to work, it has to be as big and bloated as possible, and prove at the same time that a lean, less expensive and efficient government structure is more desirable in the end.
This will replicate over other verticals. We already have fully automated convenience stores, coffee shops, pizza shops and burger shops. Add a cheap LLM like deep seek to the mix for customer service and you got yourself a standard shop but with no social security loads or expenses. Maybe one human supervisor for each 100 shops or so.
The benefits make economic actors to lean more to the fully automated establishments.
Others, manually managed will keep existing but will be the minority. These will be more expensive.
People who aim for these types of jobs, should be re-skilling in AI and how to operate it, even if it is tangential to their fields, just in case they want to be that human supervisor, or do the maintenance on the service devices used in them.
