as agriculture will become more mechanized, farmers who previously grew their own food and barely interacted with the economy will become way more productive causing average productivity to go up even as the population ages, furthering economic growth.
What kind of garbage capitalist take is this?
"People leaving their ancestral lands to go find work in the cities is progress. We'll grow field corn, wheat, and soy monocrops, which are more productive. With EnergySTAR rated farm equipment, we'll be doing it all sustainably. Newly minted Chinese workers will take up 9-9-6 factory jobs, which are the envy of workers all around the planet. They'll not only be able to afford to live in a pricey city where the air is saturated with PM <2.0, they'll be able to purchase consumer goods! Economy! Line go up!"
Fuck the economy and anyone who follows its conventional destructive logic.
Poverty is when you aren't breathing dioxins or drinking 5 grams of microplastics a week, and have a direct connection to the means of production, got it.
If you think our agricultural and industrial paradigms will last another 50 years, you're tragically mistaken. Too bad it'll take at least 100 years to raise the "productive forces" to that hypothetical point where da socialism happens automatically.
If having solid anti-capitalist and ecological principles makes me an idealist chauvinist, I doubt you're a communist.
I live in the developed world; I have fed myself for extended periods of time for $40 a month. If you haven't experienced poverty like that, fuck off with your "fethisizing [sic]" allegation.
