Great Reset: World Economic Forum Declares the ‘Age of Human Robots Is Over’
“Take a walk into the future,” the World Economic Forum (WEF) implored users on social media on Monday, as they presented the Great Reset technological wonders which will free humanity from manual labour in favour of work which requires “understanding what it means to be human.”

Stuart Russell of the University of California, Berkeley said in the video: “We’re getting past the last 10,000 years where we’ve used humans, by and large, engaging only a tiny fraction of human abilities and forcing people into repetitive, tedious dead-end work for the most part.”

“So the age of human robots is over and we have to figure out a new age. That means dramatic changes to the structure of our economy and society,” he declared.


Like 1984, Brave New World was a cautionary tale, not an instruction manual.

Are there large segments of the world’s population stuck in slave-like (if not outright slavery) rote, better-left-to-machines jobs like piecework in third world garment factories? Sure. But you’d better educate, train, and employ them at something before you cut them loose to live lives of pointless “creativity.” Idle hands… workshops…

I think Mack Reynolds wrote a novel — title forgotten — that touched on the revolutionary aspects of permanently unemployed, and very bored, people on universal basic income. That would give some hints.

But for most working Americans, I think this Great Reset BS is repugnantly dystopian. These guys are so disconnected from regular people that they can’t grasp that we might prefer doing things over being house pets. That we might prefer to choose our own lifestyles over being told that we’ll love being penniless, propertyless drones.

  1. A human being has to have a purpose to live a meaningful life. Sitting around and just thinking about being human is not a purpose. You can think about that while actually being productive and creative by doing something that makes your life better or the lives of others better. The pursuit of happiness and property are interconnected. I have seen over and over that men, in particular, die early after retirement. Men who work till they die tend to live longer. The great reset is nothing more than the next attempt at a collective central control by the few over the many.

      It’s just communism, yet again, without the label. If own nothing — not your food, not your clothing, not your home, not your transportation, nothing — you have no control of your own life. You are at the mercy of the — oddly undefined, by the dystopians — entity that decides what you may temporarily possess… until they decide someone else’s need outweighs your own.

      The “entity,” of course is them.

      I’d give these elitist, rick f***s a little more credit if they’d led by example; pull a “Francis of Assisi” and give up everything, and wait for society to hand them a cloak.
