    If that ever happens I see three possible options:

    • Universal Basic Income
    • Communism (money is abolished)
    • Societal collapse

      Two of those are communism and everyone knows that the owner class will never settle for not renting the ashes to us

            Ukraine is (also) a climate war. Fertile soil and continental climate (less affected by the loss of the AMOC). Syrian civil war was partially a climate war. It’s already kicking it off but we simply don’t see it. All we see are Hitlers.

      Bourgeois society stands at the crossroads, either transition to socialism or regression into barbarism

          Eh, the third bullet could mean anything from solarpunk anarcho-syndicalism to cyberpunk anarcho-capitalism. It could also just mean a Mad Max style fight for survival.

          Technofascism falls under cyberpunk anarcho-capitalism, obviously

            Techno feudalism is how I’ve always heard it, but neofascism is hilarious because I feel like it’s the one thing that doesn’t change at it’s core. Like we have neonazis but the fascism is basically untouched

              Yeah I was just being a bit facetious by switching the prefixes and roots. My original comment said “neofeudal technofascism” but then someone complained about remixing concepts so I replied with “neofascist technofeudalism” or whatever I said

      You forgot extermination of the poor (i.e., all workers) using the control apparatus being constructed, which actually still could leave a society.
