Trump is a meme vortex unlike anything the world has ever known. He will never die.

Truth. Reality split the day he was elected and I don't know if it's ever going back.

It really did. I think it was crazier than 9/11.

I'm bout to start on an entry in my comic book journal about a Judge Dredd storyline that I think has some depressing similarities to the election and I'm hype about it.

When do you think it'd be smart for our government to prepare our economy for a move into pure automation?

I know that when the first signs of automation showed up, they assumed that we'd just get shorter work weeks with the same pay. How naive.

Eventually, possibly sooner than later, I think most huge factories are going to automate almost everything since it's both cheaper and more efficient. What will happen to the working class then?

Is it even possible for us to avoid socialism when we move into automation?

Yes.

We could end up in an endless array of horrifying situations

That is a very common theme of history
