Amazon keeps rolling out them robots
Amazon floods its workplace with literally hundreds of thousands of robots, and claims doing so has actually created hundreds of thousands of jobs. BS, unless of course they mean it’s created jobs for the robots! Hundreds of thousands of robots = hundreds of thousands of jobs. Makes sense, i guess. Fact is, Amazon is not run by morons, so they aren’t spending millions of dollars on robots in order to create hundreds of thousands of new human jobs that will cost them millions more in wages! They’re a huge corporation, not the Salvation Army, they are in it for profit and that’s all there is to it. Note also the guy assuring us that full automation will never happen. That may be true, but it is meant to make us fear only full automation, despite the fact that even a loss of 20% of jobs will plunge the lower classes into poverty. Once only 80% of workers are needed, wages and salaries will plummet. The working class will get slightly more money than those on welfare, and the middle class will get what the working class gets now. This, folks, is part of the reason i think we are on the road to a neo-feudal nightmare. I do have to admit that robots do have one big advantage on humans — they don’t need to piss, in a bottle or otherwise.
Twitter — the free speech platform…
…where you can’t call mass-murdering scumbags mass-murdering scumbags…
Funny how they call it “violent speech.” Looks like there are still a lot of SJWs in power at Twitter. Sure, it’s an insult, but to call it violent is bullshit and they know it. I guess it’s “abusive,” but by internet standards it’s pretty tame. Anyway, if i can’t call a turd a turd on Twitter there’s no point in paying for it. Hell, i can call a turd a turd on Gab for free! And since i appealed it, it will be more like a one week suspension since that’s how they discourage appeals, by locking your account until the appeal is dealt with and making sure the process takes at least a few days! Probability – i will lose the appeal and have to take the tweet down. Certainty – i will stop paying for Twitter. Sure, it gets my cartoons exposure they would otherwise not get, but it’s done nothing for my follower count and it’s not like anyone’s paying me for the toons so it’s a waste of money AND it’s supporting a crypto-fascist, covertly SJW, fake free speech platform.
Addendum.
The appeal was settled in less than an hour. I guess that’s an improvement, but of course they found against me. Good that it was so quick, though, as it allows me to quit paying all the sooner…
Addendum Number 2.
I deleted the tweet so i could cancel the subscription, but turns out i can’t…
Ain’t Big Tech grand, folks?
