sorry to break it to you but the way machines and technology is evolving communism is INEVITABLE.
we will inevitably live in a star trek society where machines are our slaves and all the working masses no matter how lazy or poor will have all of their needs filled so they can focus on art and leisure. you can not dispute this and facism/religion/alt right "free market" neoliberal bullshit is only fighting to hold man kind back a couple hundred years before the inevitable. if you are not a communist you are on the wrong side of history.
…unless capitalism kills us all through climate change, warfare, starvation, or posadism first.
Parker Scott
yes robots are going to replace humans in the means of production.. but how does that get you communism without controlling the means of production.
The Capitalists will have no use for you what-so-ever and will live in beautiful automated fun zones.
Brody Morris
if you are not a transhuman nihilist you are on the wrong side of history
Andrew Barnes
they have not been kind to working class.

and the machines are also what inevitably destroy capitalism.

That video is fucking retarded. No shit, this is how you get technological advancement, and happens in planned economies too unless you're a fucking primitivist.
Adam Anderson
they will be when people realize they are the only tool that can TRULY destroy capitalism
trust in technological advancements, if machines put 99% of the people out of jobs you just know those people aren't going to starve to death
Isaiah Jackson
this video is not thinking in the long long term.
Lincoln Ortiz
Don't you mean a cyber-nihilist? Also true.
Parker Rogers
Nihilism is the default state of being. Actively identifying as nihilist is fedora-tier.

Samuel Hughes
all communists know nothing really matters in the end and god isn't real but you should honestly kill yourself if you identify as a nihilist you emo faggot
Christian Stewart
What a useless and unsubstantiated assertion.

Amazing.
It isn't a question of people being born into the world thinking anything because there are no such things are innate ideas you fucking illiterate.
It is the default state of being for us to imbibe everything we do with meaning. That does not nevertheless imply that the meaning that we create is indeed our meaning, however. Our world is as we all know not a level and free playing field. We are, rather, thrown into the world and into history as a subject with a class and various identities forced onto us. We are structured by the relations of power in our society to believe certain things and create certain meanings.
A nihilist recognizes this and says that we must an-nihil-ate the existent if we are ever to be free from the relations of capital, or authoritarian power structures, or identity categories. It may then become possible to create meaning, but on the meta level a nihilist will take it as a given that no meaning we create has any real existence.
Go home with those memes m8

Never underestimate the bourgeoisie's ability to screw the working class. They'll find a way around it.
Jeremiah Thompson
By destroying consumerism,, no one will buy their products when no one has a job.
But I don't know if a complete economic collapse is something I want to root for.
Eli Mitchell
These only make sense in an industrial economy. Machines will make labor obsolete. Service labor will be the only thing that is competitive.
Alexander Johnson
No, the ruling class will take their killbots and use them to exterminate said 99%
Bentley Cox
And then what? Communism must still necessarily happen.
Jacob Bell
Then we will have communism because theres no money state or classes.
But also the proletariat got murdered. Genocide-communism.
Dominic Hughes
Yes, but in the most ironic possible way, in that instead of a proletarian revolution to seize the means of production, we have a bourgeois revolution to exterminate the now-useless proletarians.
Oliver Martin
And when you've died of starvation, what remains will be communism.
