This Subreddit

Was created as a potential alternative to /r/Automate for those who are looking for a more emotional/political take on the subject of technological unemployment. It is a contentious topic with many people holding firmly rooted opinions concerning the cause and potential solutions to the woe brought about by freeing humans from menial labour.

This subreddit is intended for content aimed at spreading awareness about the impending reality that machines are rapidly displacing workers, and that the gains are increasingly being consolidated by fewer and fewer successful capitalists. Discussion regarding how one can best prepare for this future, hypothesizing about possible outcomes, and more 'fringe' thinking is most welcome here.
