Labor is one of the highest costs of doing business of nearly every industry. If they can cut down on labor, theyre going to do so.

Which sucks for the people who need to do that labor to make money...

not liking things irrationally is weird

it's like irrational dislike of bikes

irrational dislike of government

why have blanket likes and dislikes when things are obviously more complex than such an oversimplification?

Just because it's irrational to you doesn't mean it's irrational. To me, the reasons I don't like them are rational... And it's not a blanket dislike. Like I said before in post #77, "And I'm only really bothered by things that take human jobs... Or force me to do something." So, it's not a blanket dislike...

it seems to me like linkpizza is very set in his lifestyle and does not wish for anything that would require him to change it, even if it is objectively beneficial for society (including him). which is why he gets in these circular "i don't like it because it's bad" arguments

I don't mind if it actually helps. But taking away jobs isn't helping when many people need those jobs... I don't know why people think that people losing jobs is beneficial for society... Because that's literally what people are saying. Automation is taking away jobs, but who cares about those people because I can scan my own groceries now and do someone else jobs for free...
