    Your mindset is just to keep everything the way it currently is, which I think sucks.

    No, it isn’t. Don’t put words in my mouth. This is impossible anyway, things can’t ever be kept the way they are.

    The solution should be to fix our system which is designed to enrich the wealthy.

    I agree with this completely. It needs to be done first, not second and not during.

    I feel like your solution is to not do the cool new innovative thing that has the potential to help everyone

    That’s the point, it doesn’t have the potential to help everyone until after the socioeconomic issues are resolved. We, the working class, should not be cheering for any of this until it has the potential to benefit and not harm us.

      Ok fair enough.

      My only last point would be that what if the socioeconomic changes we want could be resolved because of the technical/automation advancements? What if it’s the only way to get the change we want? I’d see great hardship as a transition most probably.

      I’m obviously just speculating here. I’m very very cynical about solving the socioeconomic issues first, I just don’t see it happening, enstead we just stay business as usual. At least with a huge shift in automation causing massive job loss there is the potential for a big revolutionary change. No guarantee obviously, it could also only make things worse. We really don’t know.
