I hope people see what that really means. Corporations with historically record profits are laying off people and their largest shareholders now start these oppressing talking points.<p>First, they made people fight for scraps. If I make 50k but my colleague makes 75k, we must compete. If an acquaintance makes 200k because they chose the right path in high school, they must be really wealthy, therefore I must take that expensive car loan to not look like I am falling too far behind. While truly wealthy people live in the parallel universe and we don't see them because they managed to isolate their lives so well from the normies.<p>Then, people must to go back to the office; I guess this one's been ticked as successful in their minds.<p>Now, a new talking point emerges: you must work 60 hours to build a tool that will, hopefully, according to them, get you laid off.<p>We are speedrunning into a Neuromancer-type present with barely any resistance. Personally, I believe it's a plutocrat's utopia and won't happen, but the cost of it will be a never-before-seen kind of revolution and crash, likely marked by war. In the end, nobody will benefit.
