I hope everyone in this thread realizes that what they do: writing software and creating machines to replace uneducated lower income white workers -- is probably the single greatest driver to white economic anxiety and the rise of modern white nationalism. The scary thing is... none of us will stop. Our software, our robots, our big data, how many millions more will be displaced by the next election? How long until taxis and trucks are being massively displaced?
With automation we're digging a grave and the people whom are getting put into that grave will turn to anyone -- anyone -- who promises they can change it. Donald Trump will be the first of many populist white nationalists in the West who meekly promise they can stop globalization and automation. They can't. Those jobs are dead men walking. The white working class is a zombie, undead, going through the motions, with twenty million more jobs on the cutting block in the next decade.
A billion guns, a hundred million angry poor white people, and all we're doing is displacing them and validating their anger. What an industry.
