oh man, i made a topic about this on 261 about automation.

nobody is answering certain questions:

1. What new jobs have been created by automation in the past few decades?
I found some articles and all I found were joke jobs like SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGER

http://www.cnbc.com/2014/04/29/10-jobs-that-werent-around-in-1989.html
(its a sliding site)
https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2016/06/10-jobs-that-didn-t-exist-10-years-ago/

2. If google translate becomes perfect, what's stopping someone from sending engineering and programming jobs over to Ukraine to some dude for 5k a year?


(ROD's post here)
Theres too much logic and hard truth here for most people, it will only be when enough people can't feed their family or themselves that they will try to act, and by that time it will be too late. This generation is not one that revolts, rebelling is seen as a bad thing now.


Well I am against revolting. I just don't think it's good (usually).

But there are MANY things we could do, such as write letters and call congressmen and politicians, and actually VOTE responsibly. If a candidate doesn't promise to address the issue, he's getting voted out. If he promises to but doesn't, he gets voted out.

Instead of obsessing over identity politics and other stupid dynamics such as equating political parties to sports teams ("my team is the red sox/republicans so they can do no wrong!) people should make issues such as automation central to the political discourse.
