I think what he is saying is that white collar office work is going to go the way of the dinosaur. The vast majority of jobs in the US are service/white collar jobs that people with college degrees do. They are under significant threat due to AI automation. The only jobs left will be those requiring human labor, like the trades etc. Even fields like medicine, law, pharmacy,.....education focused professions are all going to be automated away.

it's easier to automate blue collar jobs than white collar jobs.

Tell me you’ve never re-wired a house without telling me you’ve never re-wired a house.

He is right about one thing though, someone who actually does something productive will have more economic power than some academia loon exploring gender theories or oppression of minorities.

There is a certain hierarchy, but referring to people that learn and teach things about humanity as “loons” certainly tells us a lot about you.

DP. “Loon” might be an unnecessary dig, but I agree those humanities people are in trouble. The thing is, the money that ever gave those people well paying jobs in the first place was artificial, and it now it is gone.
There is someone I know, unemployed for a year, who I was trying to help with a referral. I saw her LinkedIn and literally the first thing on there was the “she/her” pronouns and then all the other woke stuff. This is a middle aged NoVA white woman. I want to tell her, take those out, it’s not 2022 anymore. You need to focus on your transferable skills and frame yourself differently.

I majored in something even more worthless on the job market than humanities, which now I think was better than humanities because I was forced to pivot and gain skills early on and I’m doing really well now.

I am the loons PP. yes that’s what I mean. When real life hits you on the head there’s no place for fluff and these people will find it out soon enough.
Don’t people see the trend? Rn all the “refugees” who would be a burden on the benefit system if UBI was instituted are being pushed out. Next will be the people taken off Medicaid and food stamps for not working, i e homeless and with “invisible disabilities” aka those who can’t hold a job but aren’t officially disabled. This is done to reduce the base of future UBI recipients.

There will still be industry.

Bottom line is that companies replacing human workers with AI and robotics should be expected to pay more in taxes to make society whole again.

This is never going to happen, they will let people starve if need be.
