AI is here and taking job tasks constantly. We have extremely low taxes for the wealthy so every public entity is running out of money or is in debt. We are entering into a period of serious gasoline shortages. When the clear solutions aren't implemented due to politicians being paid off, the only path forward becomes to break things. This is what we'll see more of as time progresses. We are in the depths of late stage capitalism in the US, and the laid off workers will do something about it.
What are your plans realistically?
Wait it out. They'll lose the upcoming elections, and some rational people will tape over the leak for a few years. No reason to believe anything else will happen when 99% of the population sits at home during a protest.
That's funny of you to assume that 99% of the population will sit at home during the upcoming protests this year.
I'm no historian, but what's happening these days looks a lot like the second industrial revolution to me. Tech progress enabling an enormous concentration of wealth, a financial crisis looming ahead and something that looks more and more like a global conflict.
I hope there's a Roosevelt 2.0 somewhere not too far in the future.
