    I actually agree with Grimes. Let's seize the state apparatus, wrest it from the hands of the bourgeoisie, and destroy the old state. In place of it, build the proletarian state. This state will foster technological developments, and that will include research into A.I. and its possible uses in advancing socialism towards communism.

    That's what she meant, right? Definitely not just, like, doing nothing, and hoping bourgeois "technology" hastens a post-capitalist future?

        I'm glad that a famous person is talking about communism in a positive manner, I'm just peeved that celebrities have so much power over the opinions of people.

    There was a theory that we would go from post-scarcity capitalism into communism naturally. Problem is: they failed to consider that capitalists would just manufacture scarcity ad perpetumm, which is what they did.

      The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of, of you know, the thing.

    I really understand the mindset of those first French revolutionaries that went into the aristocratic mansions. They wrestled with knowing such disgusting decadence existed alongside and because of starvation outside of it. They looked at the depraved powdered freaks in front of them, full Disney Adults, and nothing made sense except finding a merciful way to remove the threat. I totally get why they just went down the line feeding La Madame whoever enabled that aristocracy to exist.

    There shouldn't be a world in which children go hungry so that Grimes can pretend she's a space princess. Absolutely nothing, nothing, the masses could do to her class would rival the daily terror they force on us to engorge themselves. No compassion, no compassion, she'd be useless on a farm anyway so not even that excuse.

    Basic fundamentals.

    Any theory, any analysis, you’d know where the problems lie. Like that scene from Grapes of Wrath where they destroy oranges in front of hungry people.

    I mean she’s as baby brained as any other lib who thinks the Person-crushing-blood-machine could be used for good, instead of investigating why we have a Person-crushing-blood-machine that pollutes the air, poisons the water, and only produces useless things like paper doilies.

    One of the things I found fascinating about The Communist Manifesto was Marx's insight into automation and intellectual property way back in the 1800's, but you're totally innovating there, Grimes.

    I also found it funny how the scary book right wingers kept telling me to read was about 10 pages of saying we need to seize the means of production and then a whole bunch of dry talk about IP.🤣

    love how celebs can think that they've invented doing economic planning on the computer, and also the concept of farming automation. Grimes is gonna lose her shit when she finds out about the combine harvester

      What combines already drive themselves? Is driving in a flat field with minimal turns really easy to automate? Who'd a thunk 🤔

    What drives me insane is that she thinks she knows what she's talking about. The equation for scarcity is already solved and has logistics anyway, it's called Walmart.

    I guess somebody send her some stuff on cyber-syn? It's not that I don't like A.I., it's just that what we use now is not A.I. and even talking about it as if it is is nonsense.

    AI is actually the fastest path to communism

    AI: beep beep let us do Stailn's 5 year plan in 5 weeks

    if implemented correctly, AI could actually theoretically

    Failpolitics libs can't even dream for success
