This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Kill off all of the poors they no longer need and live in a utopia being served by robots.

Unironically the closest answer to reality except they'll just let us die

Yeah, I wasn't joking. That's our future if we don't get our shit together and bring them down first.

Given cuts to medicaid and vaccine approvals being rolled back, one had best hurry.

We have time until 2027, then everything will be sad. Although surprises await us already in 2026. :3

Dont you need poors for there to be rich? Even if they didnt need us to work cause some amazing AI, they need to flex it to real people right? Or will they stroke their ego with ai VTubers?

[–] SugarCatDestroyer@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Well, people are drunk with power and have really gone crazy a long time ago. In short, in the rich areas they will be replaced by robots, and in the poor areas people will work as slaves for food.

The Penultimate Truth is a really awesome book about pretty much this, except they stuck the poors underground in Tanks.

They are sort of like Vaults in Fallout, it's seriously one of my favorite books. Phillip K Dick

I was thinking "gurgle gurgle" as filled with liquid... I don't know what distinct sound the Vaults in Fallout make.

The time machine by hg Wells. The rich force the poor underground into manual labor until both evolve and the poor start eating the rich
