nice try Hong Bong Chan

How do other leftists here feel about UBI? What kind of culture can we have in a post-work society. Will people return to becoming artisans, creators, independent producers again?

I think under our current model in the west this can result in just subsidized consumerism which scares me

It's interesting but I think we should be careful to not assume implementing any particular teleological marxist-socialist plan in accordance with historical ideology is the best route - the possibilities of the technology will beg new questions. We have the kind of wealth available in theory that Marx could never dream of.

I don't really give a fuck about ideology. I care about ending economic injustice.

As far as I'm concerned, all economics is crap. all of it.

If you aren't using supercomputers comparable to those used in climate modeling to do your economic thinking, you aren't doing economics.

I dont care if you want to argue with liberals, there's barely any of us here. Retarded OP left the thread anyway

Yes, I'm actually curious to know what you think on spiritual or cultural nationalism versus ethnic nationalism?

And are you aware of any historically articulated form of nationalism without martialism and expansionism?
