In the 60's we were talking about UBI and other alternatives to get income just because of AI and Robotics. Wonder who dropped that whole train of thought along the way?

Community service should serve the community, not warmongers and the folks getting richer from wars.

Since trumps first term we've been inundated by patriarchal propaganda about 'war-fighters' and bear-riding russian soldiers or military pageantry; which isn't unique to the last decade, we've always done it, but this is turned up to 11 and coming from all sides.

Such craven (and strangely pseudo-sexual?) bullshit constantly coming out of these weak-ass men who can't be bothered to understand what violence and war actually is.

Yeah, capitalism's greatest expression of itself: serfdom for citizens and corporations as the only 'free persons' under an autocratic government.

Also - they say "or community service" but they mean serving in the military and doing community service until they need young bodies murdering innocent people on the other sides of those lines on a map!
